Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited procured executive and non-executive recruitment services for delivery across the United Kingdom. The requirement covers recruitment activity for senior executive and non-executive appointments, under the Recruitment Services category (CPV 79600000). It relates to Lots 1, 2 and 3 of the relevant recruitment services framework. The buyer is NHS Property Services Limited, based in Stockport, England. The opportunity is therefore relevant to recruitment consultancies and search firms able to support public-sector appointments across the UK, particularly at executive and non-executive level. The requirement is for services rather than goods or works, and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier is an SME recruitment advisory firm, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist provider rather than only a large national business.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, covering Lots 1, 2 and 3. The tender submission deadline was 20 August 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to IRG Advisors LLP on 28 August 2026 for £60,000. The contract period runs from 28 August 2026 to 27 August 2027. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £60,000, in GBP. The recorded basis is recruitment services under the executive and non-executive requirement. The award is active and the contract period is stated as one year. The process has therefore moved beyond tendering and supplier selection into the contract delivery period.

For recruitment and executive search businesses, this procurement provides evidence of NHS Property Services’ demand for specialist executive and non-executive recruitment support through a framework call-off. Relevant competitors would need to demonstrate credible capability in identifying, assessing and appointing senior leaders and non-executive personnel, with the capacity to support requirements across the United Kingdom. Experience of public-sector or NHS-related recruitment would help a supplier understand governance, scrutiny and appointment requirements, although the published process does not state specific accreditation or qualification requirements. The award to IRG Advisors LLP, an SME, shows that a focused specialist consultancy can compete for this type of work. Businesses seeking similar future opportunities should monitor the buyer’s use of recruitment frameworks and be positioned to respond through the applicable framework route.
