• Accurately grade quality assessments in line with classifications detailed in Quality Control scoring metrics with a clear and appropriate rationale for outcome provided
• Summarise and articulate issues identified confidently and concisely 
• Provide detailed and constructive feedback to colleagues to enhance skills and embed best practice
• Build strong stakeholder relationships in order to influence and advocate change to mitigate risk identified from quality assessments

• Able to analyse data and present findings
• Planning and organisational skills
• Attention to detail
• Ability to manage own workload
• Ability to provide feedback in a constructive manner
• Communication Skills
