HE Quality Manager

The post holder will be a key role within UCS, working with exceptional colleagues within the central HE Team and wider College, to maintain and support further development in the quality assurance processes and governance systems for HE, in line with OfS and HEI requirements, as well as IfATE and Ofsted requirements in relation to HE apprenticeships. This is a fantastic opportunity to provide a key role, working with the Dean in a stimulating and rewarding environment, based in the heart of Somerset.

This post will provide informed support on the further development of UCS as it works to gain degree awarding powers (BDAP), and provide advice and guidance to academic managers and staff within the wider college through the faculties of: Health, Wellbeing and Education; Digital Innovation, Engineering and Clean Energy; Business and Creative Industries; Agriculture, Environmental Management and Ecology, delivering 'Degrees for Real Life'.

The realising of the vision for UCS has started with Bridgwater & Taunton College, becoming the first FE college to gain the consent of both the Nursing & Midwifery Council (NMC) and its university partner, University of the West of England (UWE) to deliver nursing degrees locally and in its own right. The College was also the first FE College to be invited and accepted into the Council of Deans of Health as an Associate Member, and now sits alongside university healthcare faculties at the heart of policy and political debate. In addition, the College has become the Further Education representative on NHS England's South West Region Nursing and Midwifery Supply Board, actively contributing to removing barriers to health careers. Most recently the College was awarding the Queens Anniversary Prize for the collaborative work with the NHS and UWE to create this ground breaking approach.
