Pro Tem is an established public sector consultancy operating across the UK, working with organisations to help improve their planning and development of services, including the implementation of new strategies and policies. Much of our work is project-based and involves significant elements of service evaluation and change management to enable organisations to reach their goals. We are outcome focused and have a sound understanding of health and social care policy at a national, regional and local level. Inter-agency partnership working is an area of special expertise. Additionally, we can provide independent help to examine and re-design dysfunctioning services, whether this is as a result of a planned change or a serious untoward incident.

Pro Tem is linked to a larger organisation called The Consultancy Company through which it can access a wide range of consultants to provide complementary skills and expertise. We can provide named staff for specific assignments or a small or large team of staff for more extensive projects at competitive rates.

We have a track record of managing complex, high level projects in multi-agency and multi-professional work environments. Although experienced at working to tight deadlines we have a facilitative style which enables collaborative working and enables staff to develop their own potential.
