Ofsted Registration Consultant
Stevenage | £60,000 | Onsite
You've Registered Homes. Now Help Others Do It.
Most people who've been through an Ofsted registration once wouldn't choose to do it again.
You know what it's like.
The paperwork. The interviews. The endless follow-ups. The pressure of getting everything right.
But you also know the feeling when that registration comes through and a new service can finally open its doors.
That's where this role is different.
At Delphi Care Solutions, we help providers across the country navigate the Ofsted registration process and build services that give children the care and support they deserve.
As demand for our consultancy services continues to grow, we're looking for someone who can bring credibility, practical experience and strong relationship-building skills to our expanding Ofsted division.
This Isn't Just Another Compliance Role
You won't be sitting behind a desk ticking boxes.
You'll work directly with providers, Registered Managers and Responsible Individuals, helping them move from early planning through to successful registration.
You'll become the person clients pick up the phone to when they're unsure what to do next.
The person who keeps registrations moving.
The person who helps turn ideas into fully functioning services.
From brand-new children's homes and supported accommodation settings to established providers looking to grow, you'll play a key role in helping clients get things right from the very beginning.
The Role
You'll manage your own portfolio of clients, supporting them through every stage of the registration process.

You'll be responsible for:
Supporting Ofsted registrations from enquiry through to approval
Reviewing applications, policies and registration documents
Supporting Registered Managers and Responsible Individuals
Preparing clients for Ofsted interviews
Advising on safeguarding, staffing, leadership and governance
Reviewing Statements of Purpose and Children's Guides
Managing client onboarding and project planning
Following up outstanding actions and maintaining momentum
Responding to new enquiries and discussing consultancy packages
Building strong relationships with clients and sector contacts
Supporting business development and service growth
Who We're Looking For
You'll probably already have experience within children's services and understand what Ofsted expect from quality providers.
You may currently be working as:
A Registered Manager
A Responsible Individual
An Ofsted Consultant
A Compliance Manager
An Operations Manager
A Quality Assurance Lead
Most importantly, you'll be someone who can combine regulatory knowledge with practical…
