Summary of the contracting process

North Lincolnshire Council procured temporary agency staffing to fill a vacant Principal Planning Officer role. This is a recruitment and professional staffing requirement within the planning function of a sub-central public authority. The work supports the council’s planning service in North Lincolnshire, with the council based at Church Square House in Scunthorpe. The service falls within the broad business services and recruitment category. It is relevant to recruitment agencies and specialist staffing providers able to identify, vet and supply experienced planning professionals for temporary local-government roles, particularly Principal Planning Officers. The requirement concerns one completed service lot and is focused on providing an individual or suitable temporary resource rather than delivering construction, consultancy design or general administrative staffing.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct procedure below the threshold, without competition. G2V Recruitment Group Limited was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and runs from 20 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its gross value is £92,378.40 including applicable taxes, in GBP. The contract is active and the award is active. The opportunity was evaluated through the council’s direct-award route rather than an open tender or competitive process. The requirement was for temporary agency staffing for the Principal Planning Officer vacancy, and the recorded delivery area is North Lincolnshire. No separate award values or additional lots are recorded.

For a supplier considering future requirements from North Lincolnshire Council, this award demonstrates demand for temporary recruitment support in a specialist planning role. A credible competitor would need access to qualified planning professionals, an effective database or network of candidates, and the ability to respond quickly to a public-sector vacancy. Relevant capability includes recruiting or placing Principal Planning Officers and similar senior planning staff, checking candidates’ suitability, managing temporary assignments and supporting the council through the placement. Experience supplying professional staff to local authorities would help demonstrate an understanding of public-sector expectations, planning-service pressures and compliance requirements. The selected supplier is a large recruitment business, indicating that capacity, candidate reach and reliable contract administration may be important when comparable staffing needs are addressed.
