ASDAN is an education charity providing accredited curriculum programmes and regulated qualifications designed to give learners in greatest need the opportunity and tools to discover, develop and make full use of their potential.  We are excited to be looking for a Compliance Manager to join our Education Team based in our head office in Bristol. 

ASDAN believes in the power of learning to transform life chances, reduce inequalities and improve social mobility. We work with mainstream and special schools, further education colleges and training providers, and voluntary and community organisations, supporting teachers and learning mentors to equip young people with the knowledge, skills and attributes to thrive in learning, work and life.

Based in Bristol, with regional teams covering the United Kingdom and internationally, we employ 45 staff and have an annual turnover of around £3 million. Globally, ASDAN’s courses have been taken up in more than 30 countries, with key partners in China, Australia and the Middle East.   As an awarding organisation, we are regulated by Ofqual in England, Qualification Wales and CCEA in Northern Ireland.

We are looking for a full time Compliance Manager, keen to bring their experience of regulation and compliance to a charity with a big heart, and exciting plans to further develop our qualifications portfolio to support our mission to engage, elevate and empower young people in greatest need.  The Compliance Manager will lead on the development and management of the quality assurance and control systems of all ASDAN qualifications, to ensure we meet our regulatory requirements. Reporting to the Education Director (ASDAN’s Responsible Officer), the role will also be responsible for the management of the external moderation, centre approval and centre audit teams, as well as the line management of the Compliance Officer.
