Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by West Northamptonshire Council pertains to a commercial agreement with Indeed for advertising services, specifically for sponsored job adverts and company pages on Indeed and Glassdoor. This tender falls under the services category and operates within the advertising and marketing industry. The procurement, classified as a sub-central government public authority activity, has reached the contract award stage, which was completed on 23rd June 2025. The contract commenced on 5th June 2025, and is set to conclude on 30th May 2026, covering multiple regions within the United Kingdom.

This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in advertisement and marketing services, particularly those capable of providing innovative solutions in job advertising. It is well-suited for companies with experience in digital marketing and those offering platforms for increasing employer visibility. Despite being awarded to a large company, Indeed UK Operations Limited, smaller firms in similar sectors can explore partnerships or seek future tenders offering similar services. The procurement method was below the threshold for public tendering, suggesting potential opportunities for businesses to engage directly and competitively with contracting authorities such as West Northamptonshire Council in future procurements.
