Communications and Engagement Lead (Recovery) x3

Are you committed to helping us regulate health and social care within England?, As an organisation, we have been on a very challenging journey to transform what we do. Recently, we and others have identified clear areas where improvement is urgently needed in our role as the regulator for health and care services. We are working at pace and in consultation with our stakeholders to rebuild that trust and become the strong, credible, and effective regulator that the public and providers need and deserve.
These roles will be fast-paced, high intensity roles that will help us communicate and engage with our stakeholders, managing delivery of a campaign to restore trust with the public and providers by listening better, working together more collaboratively and being honest about what we’ve got wrong.

For 3000+ people at the CQC we end each day knowing that we have made a difference to the lives of those most in need in our communities. We make sure health and social care services provide people with safe, effective, compassionate, high-quality care and encourage care services to improve. We are looking for people who are caring, demonstrate integrity and work well as part of a team to join with us and share in this sense of achievement.
