Role Overview 
An opportunity has arisen for a Quality Assurance Officer to join a quality and operational performance team supporting accommodation services across a large property and maintenance contract. Working within a team of five and reporting to the Contract Quality Manager, the role combines data analysis with operational involvement across sites. The successful candidate will play a key role in analysing performance data, validating operational information and identifying opportunities to improve service delivery across the contract.

Training and development within quality assurance and continuous improvement will be supported, including opportunities to undertake Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt and Green Belt qualifications following successful completion of probation.

Conduct audits and quality inspections across operational sites to ensure activities are delivered in line with contractual requirements and company procedures.
Undertake assurance sampling on completed inspections and operational activities to verify accuracy and quality of service delivery.
Maintain accurate records and reporting within internal systems including CAFM and contract management platforms.
Support the development and implementation of the Contract Quality Plan, ensuring audit findings and service issues are translated into improvement actions.
Work closely with operational teams and supply chain partners to ensure consistent application of quality standards and contractual processes.
Deliver training and guidance to operational colleagues and contractors on quality processes, assurance procedures and reporting requirements.
Attend operational and performance meetings, providing insight into quality trends, risks and improvement opportunities.
Travel regularly across operational sites throughout Oxfordshire, Hampshire and the wider South East to support audits, inspections and stakeholder engagement.
