Description

Dudley MBC is commissioning a Connect to Work delivery partner to contribute to a single, borough wide supported employment system, rather than standalone or parallel services.

Working alongside in house teams and other partners as one integrated service. This includes shared referral and triage processes, aligned delivery models, and joint responsibility for quality, fidelity and continuous improvement.
