3What this role really is

A Director of Compliance, Quality and Safety sets the direction for how a division or region manages compliance, quality and safety. The role covers a wide remit. It involves working closely with senior leaders to make sure operations run ethically, safely and within the rules. It also means owning the outcomes when things go right or wrong.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

GRC/EHS Platform (e.g., ServiceNow GRC, Intelex, Cority, Archer GRC) Strategic

Leading the strategic deployment and optimisation of the GRC platform across the business unit, ensuring it meets evolving regulatory needs and provides actionable insights for executive leadership. You'll define governance policies within the tool.

Audit & Inspection Platforms (e.g., iAuditor, Gensuite, ComplianceQuest) Architect

Setting the enterprise-wide audit strategy for the business unit, selecting and integrating audit tools, and ensuring audit data feeds into overall risk management and continuous improvement programmes.

Document Control Systems (e.g., MasterControl, Veeva QualityDocs, SharePoint with strict versioning) Strategic

Architecting the information governance framework for all CQHS documentation, ensuring system validation for regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA 21 CFR Part 11) and seamless access for operational teams.

Regulatory Intelligence Platforms (e.g., Wolters Kluwer CGE, LexisNexis, Enhesa) Strategic

Setting the scope for regulatory monitoring across the business unit, briefing executive leadership on major regulatory shifts, and determining the strategic response and resource allocation required.

LMS for Compliance Training (e.g., Cornerstone OnDemand, SAP Litmos, Docebo) Strategic

Defining the overall compliance training strategy and budget for the business unit, selecting LMS vendors, and linking training effectiveness to overall CQHS performance metrics and cultural change initiatives.

Analytics & Reporting Tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) Strategic

Defining the key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics for the entire CQHS function within the business unit, presenting dashboards to the MD and Board, and using data to justify strategic initiatives and budget requests.

Board Reporting Platforms (e.g., Diligent, Nasdaq Boardvantage) Expert

Preparing and presenting comprehensive compliance and risk reports for business unit leadership, board, and committee meetings, ensuring clarity, conciseness, and actionable insights that drive strategic decisions.

5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choice	Coming in	Where you are now	The step above
Strategic CQHS Direction for Business Unit	N/A	N/A	N/A
Regulatory Engagement & Response	Escalates all external contact to supervisor	Drafts responses for review, participates in minor interactions	Leads routine regulatory interactions, drafts complex responses for approval
Budget Allocation (CQHS Function)	No authority	Suggests resource needs for specific tasks	Proposes project budgets up to £5K, seeks approval
Major Incident Management (Safety/Quality)	Reports incident immediately, assists investigation	Leads root cause analysis, drafts initial incident report	Manages incident investigation end-to-end, recommends corrective actions

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR)

The frequency of workplace injuries and illnesses that require more than first aid, per 100 full-time employees.

Target · Year-over-year reduction of 15% across the business unit.

If last year's TRIR was 1.2, your target would be 1.02 or lower. You'd present the trend and the actions driving it.

Cost of Non-Quality (CoNQ)

The financial cost associated with products or services that fail to meet quality standards (e.g., scrap, rework, warranty claims, customer returns).

Target · Reduce CoNQ by £500K+ annually for the business unit.

Identifying and eliminating a recurring defect that was costing £150K in rework and customer returns each quarter.

Regulatory Non-Conformance (NC) Rate

The number of major or critical non-conformances identified during external regulatory audits or inspections.

Target · Zero major non-conformances in any external audit.

Successfully navigating a major HSE inspection without any enforcement notices or significant findings, demonstrating robust controls.

Proactive Risk Identification (Near Misses/Observations)

The volume of near-miss incidents, hazard observations, and safety suggestions reported by employees.

Target · Increase reporting by 30% year-over-year.

Implementing a campaign that boosts near-miss reporting from 50 to 65 per month, showing a healthier safety culture and better leading indicators.

Audit Programme Effectiveness

The percentage of internal audit findings that are addressed and closed on time, and the reduction in repeat findings.

Target · 95%+ on-time closure rate for high-priority actions; 25% reduction in repeat findings.

Ensuring that 19 out of 20 critical audit actions are closed within their agreed timeframe, and that a recurring issue from last year hasn't reappeared.

Strategic Influence & Partnership

How effectively you embed CQHS thinking into business strategy, rather than being seen as a 'policeman'.

You're regularly invited to strategic planning meetings, your input is sought on new product launches or market entries, and business unit leaders proactively seek your advice before making major operational changes. You're seen as a problem-solver, not a problem-creator.

Organisational Culture of Compliance

The extent to which employees at all levels demonstrate ownership and commitment to CQHS principles, even when not directly supervised.

High rates of voluntary near-miss reporting, active participation in safety committees, employees challenging unsafe practices, and a general understanding of 'why' we have certain rules, not just 'what' the rules are. This is measured through engagement surveys and direct observation.

Regulatory & Stakeholder Relationships

The quality and effectiveness of our relationships with key external bodies and internal senior leaders.

Positive feedback from regulators during site visits or inspections, proactive engagement that prevents issues escalating, and strong, trusting relationships with the C-suite and Board members, who see you as a credible expert and a safe pair of hands.

Talent Development & Team Leadership

Your ability to build, mentor, and lead a high-performing CQHS team that can operate effectively and grow their careers.

High retention rates within your team, successful internal promotions, positive feedback from direct reports (e.g., 360-degree reviews), and a clear succession plan for key roles within your function.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy

Protecting the Organisation & Its People

You'll feel a genuine sense of purpose knowing your work directly contributes to preventing harm to employees, customers, and the environment. This shows up in your diligence during audits, your persistence in closing corrective actions, and your commitment to robust training programmes.

Successfully implementing a new machine guarding system that prevents a serious injury, or ensuring a product recall is handled flawlessly, protecting consumers.

Shaping Organisational Culture

You're driven by the idea of embedding CQHS into the very DNA of the business unit. This means you'll spend time coaching leaders, celebrating proactive behaviours, and building programmes that make 'doing the right thing' the easiest option for everyone.

Seeing a significant increase in proactive safety observations or near-miss reporting because employees feel empowered and understand the value.

Strategic Problem-Solving & Risk Management

You thrive on tackling complex, ambiguous problems where the stakes are high. You'll enjoy designing enterprise-wide risk mitigation strategies, interpreting new regulations, and finding pragmatic solutions that balance compliance with business objectives.

Developing a new global standard for a critical process that reduces risk across multiple manufacturing sites, or successfully navigating a complex regulatory change without business disruption.

What frustrates people

Constantly battling the perception that your job is to say 'no' and slow things down.
The disconnect between executive rhetoric on safety/quality and actual operational priorities.
Fighting the 'check-the-box' mentality during audits and compliance tasks.
Justifying preventative measure budgets against more tangible revenue-generating investments.
Organisational 'incident amnesia' where lessons from past failures are forgotten.
The heavy, often tedious, documentation burden that feels disconnected from real-world harm prevention.
Owning the failures when they happen, but rarely getting credit when things run smoothly.

What this role does not give you

A quiet, predictable 9-to-5 where you can just follow a playbook.
Constant praise and recognition for preventing problems that never happen.
A role where you're always popular or where your decisions are universally loved.
A chance to avoid difficult conversations or challenging senior leaders.

8Who you work with

Your impact here is massive. You're not just ticking boxes; you're building the systems and the culture that allow us to operate safely, ethically, and profitably. You'll directly influence our licence to operate in certain markets, our reputation with customers, and the well-being of hundreds, if not thousands, of our employees. Essentially, you're a cornerstone of our long-term sustainability and growth.

9What you need before you start

A proven track record of at least 15 years in senior Compliance, Quality, or Health & Safety roles, with a significant portion of that in a leadership capacity.
Demonstrated experience managing multi-disciplinary teams, including other managers, across different locations or functions.
Extensive experience engaging directly with national regulatory bodies and successfully navigating complex inspections or investigations.
A deep understanding of relevant industry-specific regulations and international standards, with a history of translating these into practical, effective business controls.
Proven ability to set and execute strategic objectives for a significant business unit or region, with measurable impact on CQHS performance.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, as a Director, your time is gold. You're meant to be thinking strategically, not sifting through mountains of data or drafting endless reports. Good news: AI can take a huge chunk of that off your plate, freeing you up to focus on what truly matters – protecting our business and driving improvement.

For a Compliance, Quality & Safety Director, AI isn't about replacing your judgment; it's about giving you superpowers. Imagine getting critical regulatory updates summarised instantly, predicting where your next incident might occur, or having first drafts of board reports ready in minutes. That's the reality with modern AI tools, and we want you to use them to their full potential.

Automated Regulatory Scanning & Summaries

Forget manually trawling through government websites. An AI agent continuously scans regulatory databases (e.g., HSE bulletins, FDA guidance, EU directives) for changes relevant to our operations. It then summarises the key updates, flags high-impact regulations, and even suggests initial actions. You'll get concise briefings, not endless legal text.

Predictive Incident & Risk Analysis

AI models can chew through historical incident data, near-miss reports, inspection findings, and even weather patterns to identify subtle correlations. It flags high-risk scenarios before an incident occurs, allowing you to proactively deploy resources. Imagine knowing which machine on which shift is most likely to have a safety issue next month – that's powerful.

Smart Policy & Document Retrieval

Have you ever spent ages trying to find the exact clause in a 500-page policy document? A natural language processing (NLP) tool can instantly find relevant procedures, standards, or clauses across thousands of internal documents. Just ask, 'What's our LOTO procedure for the new CX-7 line?' and get the precise section, saving you hours of searching.

First-Draft Strategic Report Generation

AI can draft initial versions of incident summaries, audit findings, monthly safety briefings, and even sections of your quarterly board reports by pulling structured data from our GRC systems. This turns a 2-hour writing task into a 20-minute review and edit, letting you focus on the strategic narrative and recommendations.
