Internal Auditor Quality Health & Safety Compliance
Internal Auditor Quality Health & Safety Compliance
Job Description
Internal Auditor – Compliance Team - Nationwide
Are you someone who combines a strong understanding of legislation and quality standards with the ability to coach and support others to improve? Maybe you're a Social Care manager looking for a better work-life balance, or a Health and Safety specialist who wants to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people with learning disabilities and/or autism.
At MacIntyre, we’re all about supporting people to live gloriously ordinary lives – in ways that make sense to them. As part of our Compliance Team, you’ll play a key role in helping us do just that.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll work alongside operational colleagues across our adult, children, and young people’s services, carrying out audits and inspections in people’s homes, learning centres, offices, and our school. Your work will help us spot great practice, identify areas for improvement, and ensure we’re meeting internal policies and external regulations.
You’ll write clear, constructive reports and collaborate with teams to create action plans that lead to real change. You’ll also work with teams, helping them understand what good practice looks like and how to maintain safe, supportive environments.
You'll build relationships with colleagues and people who draw on MacIntyre’s support over a wide geographical area, involving travel across Leicestershire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and London. You will also need to be available to travel to our northern locations when cover is required. Flexibility and travel is key.
You will most likely be based at our head office in Milton Keynes or our regional office in Leicester, but if you live elsewhere in the mid or southern regions, we can discuss basing you at the regional office nearest to your home. Although this would be your base, the majority of your working week will be out and about carrying out audits. If you don’t live within a commutable distance of one of our offices, we can discuss hybrid working.

About you
You’ll have experience working at management level and with people who have a learning disability or autism, and ideally a passion for health and safety and compliance. You’ll be confident using your knowledge of legislation like the Care Act, The Mental Capacity Act, Health and Safety at Work Act, and Data Protection to support safe, compliant provision of support.
You’ll be a great communicator, able to build relationships with colleagues, people who draw on MacIntyre’s support, their staff teams and the managers. You’ll also be comfortable proficient in using Word, Excel, and online systems to produce reports and track actions.
It’s essential that you’re a driver with your own transport, insured for business use – as you’ll be travelling regularly.
Why join us?
This is a chance to be part of a values-led organisation that puts people first. You’ll be supported to develop your skills, contribute to best practice, and help shape services that truly make a difference.
