The offer
Partnership,
not consultancy
The RedQuadrant LGR Hub takes councils safely through reorganisation — securing statutory posts, aligning ICT and TUPE, protecting services, and building the capacity to transform. Vesting Day is fixed in law. The Hub is built around that reality.
Three configurations
Strategic Partner
Senior judgement alongside your CEO and SRO. No parallel structures. For when judgement matters more than activity.
Integrated Delivery Partner
The programme spine — grip, dependency management, Day One readiness. For when the programme needs structure that holds.
Targeted Capability Partner
Specialist depth exactly where risk concentrates. Scoped, time-bound,
inside your governance.

What makes it different
10–20% secondees
Council staff fill a fifth of Hub roles. Institutional memory is built inside the council, not held by a consultancy. Knowledge stays local. Capacity endures after we leave.
​
Inside governance, not alongside it
No shadow PMO. No parallel machinery. The Hub operates within your governance structures. For a Chief Executive already managing competing structures, this matters more than it sounds.
​
Transformation built in from day one
Councils don't choose between compliance and ambition. Adult and children's social care target operating models live from Day One — not afterwards.
​
Pastoral and induction support
Explicit support for the human reality of structural change. The people who have held these systems together are navigating personal uncertainty. That is a leadership challenge, not a communications one.
​
~2,000 practitioners. One interface.
Senior depth across every discipline — statutory services, ICT, finance, workforce, engagement, place — without supplier sprawl.
Three outcomes, every time
Councils have told us what matters most. We've built around all of them. These should be true at the end of every engagement — whatever form the support took.
Safe and legal on Day One
Statutory roles secured. ICT cutovers rehearsed. Services tested. Residents experience continuity from the moment the new councils exists.
Confidence in delivery
One structure. One version of the truth. Leaders have visible assurance. Members, officers, and staff aligned through induction and pastoral care.
Knowledge embedded - not borrowed
Skills and institutional memory built locally. When we leave, you won't need us anymore. That's the point.

FOUNDED
The LGR Partnership
Most LGR support stops at advice.
We don't.
Local Government Reorganisation is politically exposed, operationally risky, and statutorily live - often all at once. The question isn't whether to act. It's whether the people alongside you have been through it before.
We stay in the room through the uncertainty, into delivery, and past vesting.
One commitment:
We stay in the room through the uncertainty, into delivery, and past vesting. Not frameworks borrowed from other people's experience — commitments based on ours.
