The Local Government Association (LGA) is the national membership body for local authorities. It works on behalf of member councils to support, promote, and improve local government. The LGA delivers a programme of children’s services leadership support to councils and corporate and political leaders. The LGA is seeking to appoint up to two experienced Children's Services Governance Advisers to provide specialist support to councils across the nine regions. The advisers will work with elected members, senior officers and system partners to strengthen governance arrangements that support effective children's services and SEND delivery. This will include supporting councils to respond to significant organisational or system change, including implementing Children's Social Care reforms, SEND reform, local government reorganisation, and changing partnership arrangements. To do this the advisers will undertake direct work with corporate and political leaders including scrutiny committees and corporate parenting boards. The role requires individuals with strong professional credibility, excellent political awareness, and significant experience of supporting improvement within children's services governance and/or wider partnership governance systems. Contracts will commence as soon as possible and run until 31 March 2027, with an option to extend for a further year at the LGA's discretion. Each contract will comprise up to 60 days of support and the role will involve a combination of virtual and face-to-face delivery and may occasionally require evening commitments.
