The brief

The Commissioner will play a high profile role in a challenging political and delivery environment.

He or she will bring extensive and proven skills in children's social care transformation to deliver a robust assessment as to how improvements to services for the most vulnerable children can best be secured within the local context.

In doing so, the Commissioner will set expectations for how services might best be delivered outside of council control, leading and brokering relationships with senior council leaders and their partner organisations.

Alongside this, the Commissioner will direct work to secure urgent improvements to ensure that children in the Authority are safe.
