The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has completed the procurement process for the "C3294 Executive Search" tender, part of the recruitment services industry category, to secure a provider for executive search services. This procurement, located in London, United Kingdom, involved a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on the 4th of April 2025, with the contract running from the 8th of April 2025 to the 30th of December 2025. The award, valued at £92,400, was granted to the supplier Odgers Berndtson and published on the 29th of May 2025, marking its status as active.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment services, especially those experienced in providing executive search solutions.
