About the Role

This is an opportunity to play a key role in maintaining and enhancing compliance and quality practices across The Gordon. Working within a small, supportive and collaborative Quality Assurance team, you'll lead internal audit activities, support external audit readiness and help ensure the Institute continues to meet its regulatory and funding obligations. The annual audit will be a key focus, with established frameworks, processes and audit tools already in place to support success.

No two months will be the same. While the role follows a cyclical compliance and audit calendar, with periods of concentrated activity around key reporting and audit milestones, you'll also be involved in audit preparation, stakeholder engagement, compliance guidance, training and continuous improvement initiatives.

It's a role offering variety, challenge and genuine organisational impact. Working closely with experienced colleagues across the Institute, you'll help deliver high-quality outcomes while identifying opportunities to strengthen processes, support informed decision-making and maintain compliance excellence.

Some key responsibilities for this role include, but are not limited to:

- Lead internal audits and reviews to support compliance, quality and audit readiness.




- Interpret regulatory and funding changes and communicate key impacts across the Institute.
- Present audit findings, recommendations and compliance updates to leaders and stakeholders.
- Support external audits through preparation, implementation and response activities.
- Develop and deliver information sessions, training and resources to build staff capability.
- Contribute to quality initiatives, process improvements and organisational projects.
