    Brief

    Cambridgeshire County Council (appointed as Prime Provider by Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority) is seeking experienced providers to deliver supported employment services under the Department for Work and Pensions' Connect to Work programme. This voluntary initiative aims to help people with health conditions, disabilities, or other barriers find and maintain paid work through two evidence-based models: Individual Placement and Support (IPS), which integrates employment support with health and other services, and Supported Employment Quality Framework (SEQF), which provides intensive support for people with learning disabilities, autism, and complex barriers. The programme welcomes applications from established providers with expertise in these models, as well as smaller voluntary and community organisations interested in developing their supported employment capabilities. Full training and support will be provided to help all providers meet fidelity requirements and deliver high-quality services across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.
