Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited procured executive and non-executive recruitment services for its activities across England. The requirement covers executive search for senior roles at Grade 6, Senior Civil Service 1 and Senior Civil Service 2 levels, including equivalent grades; executive search for Senior Civil Service 3 and Senior Civil Service 4 levels, including equivalents; and recruitment for non-executive roles and public appointments. This is a professional recruitment services requirement, covering the sourcing, assessment and appointment of senior leaders and public appointees. The procurement is categorised as recruitment services and falls within the wider services sector. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that firms of this scale may be capable of delivering the requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded following a selective call-off from the RM6290 framework agreement. The contract was awarded to GatenbySanderson Limited on 31 August 2026 for £80,000. The contract period runs from 28 August 2026 to 28 August 2028. The requirement was divided into three service areas: executive search for Grade 6, SCS1 and SCS2 roles; executive search for SCS3 and SCS4 roles; and non-executive and public appointments. The tender submission deadline was 6 August 2026 at 17:00. The successful supplier is recorded against the overall award, rather than separate awarded values for each service area. The buying organisation is NHS Property Services Limited.

This award demonstrates established demand from NHS Property Services Limited for specialist senior-level recruitment across executive, non-executive and public appointment roles. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need demonstrable executive search capability, experience recruiting candidates for senior public-sector or equivalent leadership positions, and the ability to handle both executive and non-executive appointments. Firms should be able to operate through the relevant framework call-off route and provide a structured service covering search, candidate assessment and appointment support. The requirement is expressly suitable for SMEs, so a focused specialist recruitment business may be well placed to compete if it can show relevant senior appointment experience, strong candidate networks and sufficient capacity to support NHS-related work across England.
