    Brief

    The Council seeks an independent assurance provider to conduct a comprehensive financial review of its Children in Care (CiC) program. This engagement requires analyzing the current financial position and future cost forecasting, with a specific focus on identifying cost management strategies to address the increasing number of residential care placements and associated expenditure. The successful provider will examine placement trends, evaluate care options, and recommend practical solutions to improve financial efficiency while maintaining quality care standards. This is an opportunity for experienced financial consultants or assurance firms with expertise in local government children's services to deliver strategic insights and actionable recommendations.
