Interim Compliance Officer - Education & Apprenticeships (Black Country)
Location: Black Country
Contract: Interim (permanent applications also welcomed)
Day Rate: £300 - £325 per day, inside IR35 (open to discussion)
Sector: education / Apprenticeships and Training
We're working with a well established educational organisation in the Black Country, delivering apprenticeship and training programmes, who are looking for an experienced Compliance Officer to join them on an interim basis. This is a hands on role supporting the organisation to deliver against an action plan following a recent audit, with a further internal audit scheduled for November.
About the Role
- Support the organisation in strengthening compliance processes and systems, particularly around apprenticeship standards and training programmes.
- Work closely with external assessors to ensure requirements are met and improvements are properly embedded.
- Implement the post audit action plan with precision and attention to detail, ahead of the internal audit in November.
- Carry out performance checks against funding rules, and help clear the existing compliance backlog.
- Maintain accurate data and documentation across both the online portal and paper based systems.
- Provide clear, well organised documentation to evidence compliance for future inspections and audits.
- Contribute to embedding stronger audit systems for the longer term (some systems already exist, so experience improving on an existing framework is helpful).
What We're Looking For
- Strong background in compliance and audit, ideally within education, training or apprenticeship standards; candidates with an accounting or auditing background will also be considered.
- Assessor qualification desirable but not essential.
- Comfortable working across both paper based and online portal systems.
- Good working knowledge of Microsoft Excel and confident handling data.
- Educated to GCSE level as a minimum; a broader education sector background is a plus.
- Detail orientated and methodical, able to work independently and see tasks through to completion.
- Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain; checks will be made).
Why Apply
- Competitive day rate of £300 - £325 per day
- Hybrid working, with arrangements around site based and home working open to discussion given the online portal reduces the need for constant on site presence.
- Flexible start and finish times, open to discussion with the right candidate.
- A focused 2-3 month assignment with real scope to make a visible impact ahead of the November internal audit; permanent applications will also be considered for the right person. Temp to Perm also available
- Interviews held via Microsoft Teams.
If you have the compliance and audit background this role calls for and are looking for your next interim assignment, or a permanent move, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now or get in touch for a confidential conversation.
