Working for the Inspectorate

What makes a good inspector?

When we recruit an inspector, we’re looking for three key things. Firstly, we need people with experience. Secondly, people skills so that they can build rapport with services and be a good representative and, thirdly, we need curiosity – people who are curious about how other services do things, are keen to learn and take things back to their own home organisations.

Why consider working for the Inspectorate?

A secondment with the Inspectorate is a great way to develop your career and to develop your own organisation as well. You’ll get work on a wide range of inspections across England and Wales and take that knowledge back to your organisation and for your own learning as well.
