We seek to appoint a dedicated and enthusiastic professional with strong leadership capabilities, possessing comprehensive knowledge of safeguarding practices for both adults and children, and promoting a THINK family ethos throughout the organization.

The successful candidate must hold current registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and have relevant safeguarding experience. Exceptional communication skills are essential, enabling the individual to foster positive relationships with both internal and external stakeholders, provide guidance and support on safeguarding issues to staff and services, and assist the team in delivering training and supervision.
