Summary of the contracting process

Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust procured recruitment services to fill a temporary Support Infrastructure Manager post. The requirement was for a temporary staffing appointment, rather than infrastructure works or the supply of equipment. The service was for the Trust, based in Wakefield, with the role associated with its Wakefield site. This is a specialist recruitment requirement for suppliers able to source and place a temporary manager in a support infrastructure function. The procurement was categorised as a service and concerned one temporary post.

The procurement is complete and Hays Specialist Recruitment Limited was selected. The award was made on 30 September 2026, at a value of £58,000. The planned contract period runs from 28 August 2026 to 19 February 2027. The tender estimated a value between £47,788 and £57,000. The Trust used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. It was not divided into lots. The role was classified as temporary, and the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement data.

This award shows Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust uses a framework call-off to source temporary recruitment for a Support Infrastructure Manager role. Suppliers competing for a similar requirement would need access to relevant management candidates and the ability to recruit and place them into a temporary NHS support-infrastructure post. The selected provider was a large recruitment business, indicating the scale and supplier profile that met this requirement. For recruitment firms, the commercial relevance is in demonstrating a credible specialist candidate pool, effective sourcing and placement capability, and experience supplying temporary managers to public-sector organisations. The requirement was for a single senior post, so a supplier’s ability to meet a focused staffing need is more relevant than broad infrastructure delivery capacity.
