He was Director of Research at the National Institute for Social Work (1996-2001) and at the Social Care Institute for Excellence (2001-12) before joining the Tilda Goldberg Centre for Research in Social Work and Social Care at the University of Bedfordshire in 2012 as Professor of Evidence-Based Social Work. He is a qualified social worker and a member of the Academy of Social Sciences.

He is developing a programme of research in adult social care, with a focus on ageing, early intervention, reablement and dementia services.
