Chair of Audit and Risk Committee

Welcome

The SCQF Partnership supports lifelong learning and skills development across Scotland as custodians of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).

We play a central role in helping learners, employers, and education and training providers understand and apply the SCQF to recognise achievement and support progression at every stage of learning and working life.

As a small, high-impact organisation operating within the public and skills landscape, strong governance, transparency and accountability are fundamental to how we work.

Our Audit and Review Committee plays a key role in providing independent oversight and assurance across areas including risk management, financial stewardship, internal controls, and compliance. This ensures the organisation continues to operate effectively, responsibly, and in line with best practice.

The Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee will provide leadership to the Committee, working closely with fellow members, the Board, and the senior leadership team to support robust governance and informed decision-making.

This is an opportunity to contribute to the continued strength and integrity of an organisation that plays an important role in Scotland’s education and skills system, ensuring that all learning is recognised and valued.

Chair of the SCQF Partnership Board
