Summary of the contracting process

Oxford City Council procured temporary staffing services for an Allocations Officer. The work is recruitment and placement of temporary personnel to carry out allocations officer duties for the council, with delivery in Oxford. The procurement was arranged as one lot and concerns a specific temporary role rather than a wider staffing programme.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to G2V Recruitment Group Limited. Oxford City Council signed the contract on 24 September 2026; the award is active and the contract period runs from 24 September 2026 to 24 March 2027. The contract value is £38,095 including VAT. The process was a below-threshold procurement; the published data does not identify a more specific procedure or evaluation basis.

This award shows demand from Oxford City Council for temporary recruitment support to fill an allocations officer role. Suppliers competing when this requirement returns should be able to source and supply suitable temporary staff for local-authority allocations work, and manage the placement for a defined period. Recruitment businesses with public-sector staffing experience and access to candidates who can undertake allocations duties are the closest fit. The single-role requirement indicates a focused staffing assignment rather than a large multi-role workforce contract. The selected supplier was a large recruitment group, demonstrating that the buyer used an established staffing provider for this appointment.
