Description
Woking Borough Council is seeking a Cost Savings Consultant to support with identifying cashable savings for the Council.
The Council is committed to delivering cashable savings over the next two financial years. A high-level target of £624,000 has been established for this work based on a 4% saving against the Council's 2024/25 budgeted spend of £15.6m on supplies/services and contract/agency work. All areas that fall within the budget, other than permanent staffing, are subject to review and assessment.
The projected split of savings is based on £234,000 in the 2025/26 financial year and £390,000 in the 2026/27 financial year.
It is anticipated that the appointment of external consultancy support will enable this work to be initiated with increased confidence, reach, and pace of delivery.
