    Brief

    Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking a lead provider to deliver an employment support programme for economically inactive residents facing significant barriers to work. The programme will serve people with complex needs, including those not currently engaged with mainstream services, through a person-centred Key Worker model offering one-to-one support. Delivery should include a varied menu of tailored interventions addressing individual barriers such as skills gaps, health issues, or social isolation. The provider will help participants progress towards employment, education, training, or sustained support based on individual circumstances and aspirations. The programme prioritises equality of opportunity, community engagement, and partnership working with Stockport Council and local stakeholders. Successful delivery requires outreach to underserved communities, collaboration with existing support services, and a focus on improving life chances through practical, accessible support.
