The higher education sector in England is complex and diverse and the OfS’s approach to regulation recognises this. Our new strategy signals a shift from an organisation in a start-up phase to an established regulator that understands its regulatory tools and how best to use them to shape incentives across the sector we regulate. We work to ensure that students in England enjoy higher education provision that is high quality; that their access to opportunity, success and progression is not limited by background, location or characteristics; and that providers are well and sustainably led.?

We are looking to fill a vital ‘Head of’ role within our Regulation directorate as part of our senior team.

You will understand the role and value of a regulator and, regardless of your professional background, show an understanding of how effective regulation works in practice. How we do things is as important to us as what we do, and your approach will be underpinned by our values of Ambition, Openness and Learning. ?
?
Working for us?

Flexibility is important to the OfS, as we recognise that it can enable people to work more effectively. A set of organisation-wide principles shape our approach to flexible and hybrid working, which our teams then use as guidance on how they deliver their business goals. This would usually mean working from the office for two days in a typical week.?
?
?To attract the widest possible field of qualified applicants, flexible working, for example job share and part time working, apply to this role.?
??
In addition, our Total Reward Framework offers a range of benefits to suit your way of life.
