UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS England procured a national Clinical Fellow Scheme for clinical, dental and pharmaceutical fellows. The Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management (FMLM) is providing access to a wide and diverse pool of high-quality candidates, supported by its experience, credibility and reach. The service includes running recruitment consistently at national level, while enabling NHS doctors and other fellows to continue their training and substantive employment contracts. This is an education and training service, with recruitment and fellowship administration central to the requirement. The buying organisation is NHS England, and the appointed supplier is FMLM. The requirement is suited to organisations with a strong medical leadership, professional development or healthcare recruitment capability.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to the Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management. It was a below-threshold direct award without competition under the light-touch regime. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 1 September 2027. Its value is £95,200 excluding VAT, or £114,240 including VAT. The award covers one lot, for education and training services. The selected supplier is FMLM, and the award is active. The arrangement is for a national recruitment process for Clinical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Fellows, rather than a competitively tendered opportunity. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route.

This procurement indicates established NHS demand for a specialist national fellowship recruitment and training service. Suppliers seeking to compete when the requirement returns would need credible access to a broad pool of high-quality clinical, dental and pharmaceutical candidates, together with the reach to recruit consistently across the NHS. Relevant experience in medical leadership, fellow development, professional education and healthcare recruitment would support credibility. The service model also requires an understanding of how doctors and other fellows can remain in training and substantive employment while participating. Organisations should therefore be able to combine candidate attraction, structured national recruitment and education or leadership development, while delivering a consistent service at the scale expected by NHS England.
