Public Sector

Jon Collins Consulting works with public sector clients;

To build leadership capacity.

Jon Collins knows, from sixteen years’ experience, that leading a council or public sector organisation can be a lonely and isolating experience.

We can offer advice and guidance on how to approach the job, manage time and competing demands, and best deliver your objectives as a leader.


To manage relationships with private sector stakeholders.

Working across sectors is important but not always easy for public organisations. 

Our experience of building positive relationships between public, private and voluntary sector organisations can help deliver the successful and productive partnerships you need to get things done. 

Strategic policy development and implementation.

Our experience of leading the development and implementation of policy for decades means we have the experience to help officers and councillors to focus strategically on identifying, prioritising and tackling local and regional, organisational, and service issues.

To ensure your organisation is in good health and well-governed.

We have years of experience of being part of inspection and peer review teams for the Audit Commission. 

We are well-placed to provide insight from an external perspective organising and taking part in formal or informal, short or longer term, service and governance reviews.

To engage with communities and ensure consultation is valuable.

Successful implementation of policy needs public support and buy-in from a range of local and community organisations. Meaningful dialogue and effective consultation are essential.

As councillor, senior officer, community development worker and volunteer we have gained experience of engaging for public bodies with communities and the organisations that represent them, and of representing local communities to public bodies.

To design and deliver public presentations and to engage the media.

Telling an ambitious story that reflects the realities of local context improves the prospects of delivering positive results. Jon Collins is a confident and effective communicator with a professional background in press and publicity who can advise on the development of your communications strategy and the effective use of broadcast, print and social media.

To run successful campaigns 

In the voluntary and public sector, with pressure groups and community organisations, we have experience of designing and delivering successful campaigns on issues ranging from housing to regeneration, traffic schemes, community safety and city mayors.
