Summary of the contracting process

Croydon Council has awarded a contract to Linked In Ireland Unlimited Company for the provision of online recruitment services through LinkedIn. The contract, which falls under the industry category of business services—including law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, and security—commenced on 1st March 2025 and will run until 28th February 2026. The procurement process was completed using a direct, single tender action method due to the contract being below the threshold. The total value of the awarded contract is £32,975. This procurement process aligns with Croydon Council’s objective to enhance their recruitment services efficiently.

This tender creates significant opportunities for growth, especially for large companies capable of providing specialised online recruitment services similar to those offered by LinkedIn. Although the process was a direct award, businesses in the business services sector, particularly those specialising in recruitment and marketing, can gain insights into the types of services that public sector organisations are keen to procure. Future opportunities may arise where businesses can showcase their strengths and competitive offerings in similar procurement tenders by councils and other governmental organisations.
