Day-to-day operating brief

What Childcare Voucher Administrator (Payment schemes) work looks like in practice

A Childcare Payments Administrator processes employer, provider or government-supported childcare payment activity, which may include account queries, provider validation, reconciliations, corrections and scheme communications. Terms should define the actual scheme and system, customer and provider data, payment authority, evidence checks, failed transactions, duplicate or incorrect payments, fraud referral, complaints, call monitoring, access controls, remote work, performance measures and the boundary between explaining rules and making eligibility decisions.

Responsibilities reflected in the contract

Process authorised accounts payments and corrections.
Validate provider and customer information.
Investigate failed duplicate and unmatched transactions.
Handle queries complaints and fraud indicators.
