The Rivers C of E Academy Trust is seeking an HR Consultancy Service under a 3-year contract, with a total value of £100,000. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage and is being conducted via an open procedure, allowing a broad range of bidders to participate. Key dates include the tender closing on 9th May 2022, with contract signing expected shortly after this date, subject to a mandatory standstill period.
