Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Borough Council commissioned an executive search service to recruit two permanent Service Directors within its Regeneration and Environment directorate. The roles covered Street Scene, Fleet and Highways, and Regulatory Services, Community Safety and Protection. This is a specialist senior recruitment requirement rather than a general staffing contract: the supplier was expected to identify and support the permanent appointment of two service-director level candidates. The work is for the council and its operational services in Rotherham. The procurement is classified as recruitment services. It represents a focused, one-off search assignment for a local authority seeking senior leadership across highways, fleet, environmental street services, regulatory services, community safety and protection.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a competitive selective process below the relevant threshold, using a framework. There was one completed lot. Rotherham Borough Council awarded the contract to Tile Hill Interim & Executive Limited on 9 September 2026. The contract was signed on that date and runs from 9 September 2026 to 8 January 2027. Its gross value is £30,000. Advertising costs are excluded from this amount and are payable to the supplier in addition as pass-through costs. The contract is active, while the underlying tender is complete. The published information identifies a single supplier and a single award for the executive search requirement.

This opportunity demonstrates demand from Rotherham Borough Council for specialist executive search supporting permanent appointments at Service Director level. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need experience of senior recruitment and executive search, with the reach to identify candidates for complex local-government leadership roles. Relevant capability would include understanding the responsibilities of highways, fleet, street scene, regulatory services, community safety and protection, and managing a focused search through to permanent recruitment. Suppliers should also be able to deliver a defined, one-off assignment for two senior posts and handle advertising expenditure as a separate pass-through cost. The award to an SME shows that this scale of work can suit a focused specialist provider.
