Data and Compliance Integrity Manager

Description

We’re on a mission to shape the next generation of scientists and technologists and that means we’ve got to keep every detail watertight. Our learners deserve an experience that’s exceptional and compliant.

Department: Operations

Location: Remote

Compensation: £45,000 – £55,000 / year

Role

As Data and Compliance Integrity Manager, you’re the guardian of our data integrity, the architect of our assurance processes, and the driving force behind continuous improvement. You’ll lead our compliance operations, overseeing funding accuracy, audit readiness, and data quality ensuring we stay ahead of every rule change and regulation.

You’ll bring the perfect balance of precision and curiosity. You’ll thrive in the detail but never lose sight of the bigger picture. Using insight, automation, and process improvement to make compliance smarter, faster, and stronger. You’ll collaborate across teams to make sure compliance doesn’t just protect what we do, it empowers it.

You’ll use data not just to check accuracy, but to tell a story. Spotting patterns, identifying risks, and turning findings into improvement.

You’ll make sure learners start right, every time. You’ll design, implement and oversee a compliant onboarding process, ensuring eligibility checks, prior attainment and evidence are complete and accurate.

You’ll design and maintain systems that keep compliance consistent from enrolment to achievement. You’ll implement regular file audits and data validation checks, ensuring everything stands up to DfE, Ofsted and EPAO scrutiny. You’ll help teams understand not just what compliance requires, but why it matters, building confidence, accountability, and consistency at every level.

You’ll be an experienced leader within compliance and know all there is to know about apprenticeship funding rules, audits, quality assurance and compliance.

You’ll be commercially minded – acutely aware of the impact every learner, every number and every detail has on our business.

You won’t take data at face value. You’ll be inquisitive and curious, pulling the narrative from the numbers and proactively presenting improvements and solutions.

You’ll be a first‑class collaborator, educating others to streamline processes and directly impact every learner’s journey.
