UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Trinity House commissioned a vacancy advertising service from LinkedIn. The requirement is for advertising its job vacancies, covering recruitment-focused advertising and marketing services rather than general staffing, recruitment consultancy or permanent placement. The buying organisation is Trinity House, a central government public authority based in London. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. This is a single-service requirement managed by Trinity House for its own vacancy advertising needs. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are providers of online recruitment advertising, employer branding, vacancy promotion or related digital advertising services, particularly those able to reach prospective applicants across the UK through an established platform.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to LinkedIn. Trinity House used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 10 August 2026 and runs from 14 September 2026 to 31 May 2027. Its value is £28,477.50 excluding VAT, or £34,173 including VAT. The award covers one lot and one service requirement. The contract is active, and the selected supplier is LinkedIn. The evaluation outcome was therefore a direct selection rather than a competitive assessment of tenders. The requirement is classified as advertising and marketing services and relates specifically to vacancy advertising for Trinity House.

This award demonstrates a defined public-sector demand for a managed vacancy advertising platform to promote Trinity House roles across the UK. Competitors would need a credible capability in digital recruitment advertising, with an audience and targeting tools suited to reaching potential applicants rather than simply publishing generic commercial adverts. A strong offer would combine vacancy promotion with employer-brand presentation, campaign management and reporting that helps the buyer understand reach and response. Suppliers should also be able to operate reliably for a central government public authority, handle multiple vacancies through a consistent service, and demonstrate appropriate controls for public-sector purchasing, data handling and account support. The selected supplier’s scale indicates that broad platform reach and established delivery infrastructure were commercially relevant.
