The role is responsible for the robust quality assurance system that brings together the evidence and analysis on providers' compliance with the regulatory standards and provides assurance that regulatory activity and decision making meets internal quality requirements.
The role is also responsible for maintaining and supporting the regulatory assurance framework, including reporting to Executive and Board as appropriate. This includes assessing the level of regulatory assurance required, identifying where there are gaps against the agreed corporate appetite, and reporting on the extent to which requirements have been met.
It is a collaborative role, working to facilitate calibration of decisions, as well as leading and supporting knowledge sharing and on-going training to support rigorous decision making and capacity building.

Annual salary reviews are determined by the government pay award. In addition, when the probation period is successfully completed, a performance related bonus may be awarded, based on appraisal ratings at the end of the qualifying appraisal year.
