UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Durham Aged Mineworkers' Homes Association commissioned recruitment services to appoint a replacement chairperson and five trustees over the contract period. The work is executive and governance recruitment for the association, rather than general staffing. The buyer is based in Chester-le-Street, and the recruitment work is located in County Durham, England. Campbell Tickell was selected to provide the service.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The association used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One lot covered the requirement. Campbell Tickell received the award, valued at £31,033.33 excluding VAT (£37,240 including VAT). The award was made on 22 October 2026. The contract runs from 22 October 2026 to 30 September 2027 and was signed on 21 October 2026. The stated scope is to recruit a replacement chairperson and five trustees during the contract period; no separate evaluation basis or eligibility requirements are recorded in the procurement details.

This award demonstrates demand from Durham Aged Mineworkers' Homes Association for specialist recruitment of senior voluntary-sector governance roles: a chairperson and multiple trustees. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to show an effective search and selection capability for chair and trustee appointments, and the ability to manage several appointments within one engagement. Experience recruiting for charities, housing associations or similar organisations, and understanding the governance responsibilities of board members, would be directly relevant. The buyer selected a supplier through a direct award without competition, so familiarity with the association's needs and a clear, relevant track record would help establish credibility if comparable recruitment is commissioned again.
