Summary of the contracting process

Natural England is procuring a part-time coordinator for the Northern New Forest and Southeast Wiltshire Deer Management Group. The role supports landowners to deliver sustainable, collaborative deer management across Southeast Wiltshire and half of the New Forest. It combines community and stakeholder representation with wildlife preservation support and coordination of landowner activity. The procurement is for services delivered in England, covering the stated Wiltshire and New Forest area. The work is intended to help landowners work together on deer management rather than to provide direct technical deer-management operations. Natural England is the buying organisation and the requirement is suitable for organisations providing coordination, engagement or stakeholder-support services in environmental, land-management or conservation settings.

The process reached tender: Natural England invited quotations through a below-threshold open competition. Responses must meet the requirements in the Request for Quotation and be sent by email by 23:59 on 11 October 2026. Clarification questions about the opportunity or procurement process are submitted by email and may be circulated with their responses to all tenderers. The contract is scheduled to run from 19 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its estimated value is £10,000 excluding VAT, or £12,000 including VAT. There is one lot. The tender states that the full evaluation criteria are set out in the Request for Quotation. Electronic submission is not allowed, although quotations are to be sent by email.

This opportunity suits a small or medium-sized organisation, voluntary, community or social enterprise, or an independent consultant able to coordinate part-time environmental work. Relevant suppliers are likely to have experience bringing landowners and other stakeholders together, organising collaborative activity, communicating clearly and maintaining progress across a geographically defined programme. Useful capability includes community engagement, stakeholder representation, meeting and action coordination, record keeping and an understanding of rural land management or conservation contexts. Technical knowledge of deer management is expressly not required, so the opportunity may suit a capable coordinator without specialist deer expertise. The work is modest in scale and focused on supporting collaboration rather than delivering field-based deer control.
