The Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR) is the independent regulator and registrar of Scottish charities. We are accountable directly to the Scottish Parliament and operate independently from Scottish Government.

This is an important management role within OSCR’s Regulation and Improvement function. You will lead the High Volume / Low Risk casework team, ensuring that decisions and case handling are consistent, proportionate, and aligned how we assess risk across the sector. You will be responsible for delivering efficient, high-quality casework at scale, while contributing to continuous improvement in how we work – from processes through to customer experience and outcomes.

We’re looking for someone who brings strong operational leadership, sound judgement, and the ability to balance regulatory compliance with a proportionate, risk-based approach.

Working closely with senior colleagues, you will contribute to shaping OSCR’s regulatory approach, ensuring that insight from frontline casework informs organisational priorities and continuous improvement.

This role is responsible for a team of seven staff and reports to the Head of Regulation and Improvement.
