This procurement, classified under the CPV code 79600000 for recruitment services, has completed its tender stage with an end date for tender submissions on 3rd November 2024. The contract for this specialist recruitment service commenced on 4th November 2024 and will conclude on 31st May 2025. The procurement method employed was a direct, single tender action below the threshold, with a total contract value of £48,000. The project location is based in London, United Kingdom, specifically addressed at CR0 2NA.

This contract presents a substantial opportunity for recruitment agencies, especially Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), to engage with significant public sector projects, thereby increasing their portfolio and market presence. The relatively high-value contract for a specialised role indicates robust growth potential and can act as a stepping stone for businesses looking to establish credibility in high-profile recruitment for government bodies. Agencies with a track record in executive searches, particularly within the public sector, would be well-suited to compete in similar tenders in the future.
