This is a regional role covering the South West, with travel planned efficiently wherever possible, giving you the autonomy to manage your own workload while maintaining an excellent work-life balance.

• A good understanding of ACoP L8, HSG274 and water hygiene compliance.
• Excellent communication and relationship management skills.
• Strong organisational and commercial awareness.
• A full UK Driving Licence.
• Experience managing healthcare or large-scale compliance contracts would be advantageous but isn't essential.
