- Support governance forums through preparation of papers, minutes and follow-up actions
- Provide coaching and guidance to Village Managers and Operations teams on quality tools and processes
- Support quality systems for complaints, incidents and disputes, ensuring strong documentation and evidence practices

- Strong ability to translate complex requirements into clear, practical procedures and tools
- Excellent written communication skills, particularly in developing policies, procedures and reports
