Summary of the contracting process

Oxford City Council procured temporary agency recruitment services for a Temporary Licensing Compliance Officer. The requirement is a public-sector staffing and recruitment service, supplying temporary personnel to support licensing compliance work for the council in the Oxford area. The buyer is Oxford City Council, a local public authority. The selected supplier, G2V Recruitment Group Limited, is a large recruitment business and the awarded service is classified as recruitment services. The procurement covered one requirement rather than a range of separately described service areas, with the work focused on sourcing and providing a temporary officer for the council’s licensing compliance function.

The procurement has been completed and the contract is active. It was run as a below-threshold process, with the specific method recorded as unknown. G2V Recruitment Group Limited was awarded the contract for the single requirement. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026 and runs from 24 August to 24 December 2026. Its gross value is £42,624. Oxford City Council has an option to extend the contract by two months, with the maximum contract end date being 24 February 2027. The published outcome records the award as active and the contract as active; no separate award date or detailed evaluation weighting is provided.

This award indicates demand from Oxford City Council for specialist temporary recruitment supporting licensing compliance. Competitors preparing for a similar requirement would need to show reliable recruitment and workforce-supply capability, with access to candidates able to undertake licensing compliance officer duties in a local-authority setting. Credibility would come from experience placing temporary staff into public-sector or regulatory roles, understanding the practical requirements of licensing compliance work, and maintaining sufficient candidate pipelines to respond quickly to short-term staffing needs. A supplier would also need the operational capacity to manage the placement throughout the assignment and any extension, including communication with the council and continuity of service.
