Notice Title

Non-Executive Recruitment Services

Notice Description

The Legal Services Board (LSB) is looking to appoint a suitably qualified third party to undertake the recruitment of the Chair and two members of the Legal Services Consumer Panel (LSCP) and one lay board member of the Office of Legal Complaints (OLC). A provider is expected to be appointed by May 2023, with work to commence immediately. The document attached contains details of how to submit a bid, the nature of the contract and the timelines that the successful bidder will need to work to. The Legal Services Board is the independent body responsible for overseeing the regulation of lawyers in England and Wales. In all our work, we seek to promote the eight regulatory objectives set out in the Legal Services Act 2007. We share our regulatory objectives with the 'approved regulators' of the legal profession, each of which have direct responsibility for the day-to-day regulation of the different types of lawyers. Our strategy for the legal services sector outlines our vision to reshape legal services to better meet society's needs. The LSB is responsible for making appointments to the LSCP and the OLC with input from our sponsoring department the MoJ. Although the process and expected level of work by the successful bidder will differ, to provide value for money one company is expected to undertake all of the appointments. The LSCP has two members coming to the end of their second terms of appointment in December 2023 and March 2024 respectively, and these individuals are therefore ineligible for reappointment. The prospective provider will be expected to draft a role profile in conjunction with the LSB and Chair of the LSCP, advertise the role and be the point of contact for applicants and arrange interviews. It is not expected that first or preliminary rounds of interviews will be required to be conducted by the provider for these roles. The LSCP Chair is coming to the end of her second term of office in April 2024 and will be ineligible for reappointment. The prospective provider will be expected to draft a role profile in conjunction with the LSB, advertise the role, conduct a search for suitable candidates and be the point of contact for applicants and arrange interviews. First round or 'preliminary' interviews by the provider will be required. One OLC Board Member (lay) is coming to the end of their second term in April 2024 and is therefore ineligible for reappointment. The prospective provider will be expected to draft a role profile in conjunction with the LSB, advertise the role, conduct a search for suitable candidates and be the point of contact for applicants and arrange interviews with the Panel. First round interviews by the provider are expected to be required.
