    Brief

    Partners in Care and Health (PCH) seeks experienced consultancy support to develop evidence-based insights that will improve adult safeguarding practice across the sector. The consultant will conduct comprehensive research including: reviewing academic literature, CQC reports, and peer reviews to identify effective organizational structures, processes, and leadership approaches in safeguarding services; engaging with safeguarding leaders and practitioners to explore common challenges and successful improvement strategies; analyzing recurring themes from high-performing and developing local authorities; and gathering feedback from organizations that have participated in PCH's bespoke support programs. Based on these findings, the consultant will develop practical, actionable recommendations for local authorities to strengthen their safeguarding arrangements and advise PCH on how to scale and enhance its improvement offer for 2027-2029 to meet emerging sector needs and national priorities.
