• Job description

  Every role at CQC contributes to our mission. If you’re looking for a new role in Adult Social Care that gives a true sense of meaning and purpose, then you’ve found it!
  
  As a Market Oversight Manager, you’ll help protect people in vulnerable circumstances by assessing the financial sustainability of major adult social care providers, ensuring continuity of care when it matters most.  Reporting to the Deputy Director of Market Oversight, you’ll work closely with corporate providers (often at executive level) to help us fulfil our regulatory duty.

  Since 2015, our Market Oversight function has monitored the financial health of large social care providers that local authorities may find hard to replace. The aim is simple; give early warnings of potential business failure so local authorities can plan and ensure continuity of care for people who rely on these services.

  
  Picture this

  Imagine working on projects that safeguard thousands of people’s care by spotting risks before they become crises.

  In the last year as a Market Oversight Manager in Adult Social Care, you might have:

  • Led a financial risk review of a large care provider, helping local authorities plan for continuity of care.

  • Designed new reporting tools to make complex financial data clear and actionable for senior decision-makers.

  The role

  You’ll play an important part in delivering our mission. In this role, you’ll:

  • Prepare financial reports: Create quarterly sustainability packs for around 20-30 corporate providers in the Market Oversight scheme, combining financial and quality indicators.  

  • Assess risk: Analyse data and document risk decisions to support early warnings of potential provider failure.

  • Engage with providers: Liaise with corporate care organisations, review statutory accounts, and gather market intelligence to identify new entrants.

  Show us

  We’ll be looking for these skills and experiences in your application:

  • Financial analysis expertise: A track record of achieving high standards in finance or banking, with substantial experience in financial analysis within management accounting, transaction services or restructuring environments.

  • Sector and risk knowledge: Understanding of adult social care markets, business structures, and risks linked to provider failure, plus experience across restructuring solutions and insolvency procedures to make fair, proportionate decisions based on complex information.

  • Stakeholder engagement: Skilled in managing relationships at all levels, including executive-level providers, with the ability to communicate clearly and confidently to deliver corporate objectives.

  • Technology: Familiarity with using software applications to enhance analysis and a willingness to develop further skills in this area.

  Join us and help CQC shape the future of health and care. Apply today to make an impact that truly matters.
