Notice Description
The Department for Education (DfE) is responsible for supporting improvement in local authorities, through government intervention in response to failure or weakness in the provision of children's social care services. The Department wishes to appoint an Adviser or Advisers to provide intervention and improvement support in Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council. The authority has recently been placed in intervention and is starting implementation of its improvement plan.

They will demonstrate an understanding of the improvement that has already taken place in the authority and what needs to happen next.
