The requirement covers mainly Director-level appointments, including Director of Finance, Director of Strategic Partnerships, Director of Communications and Engagement, Director of Quality and Regulations, and Director of Strategy and Policy, alongside other senior appointments. The purpose is to build the organisation’s leadership capability and culture. This is a personnel placement service, classified under CPV 79610000, and falls within the services category. The work is for the buyer in London. The requirement is relevant to executive search firms, interim management recruiters and senior leadership placement specialists able to source candidates for multiple strategic, operational, financial, communications and regulatory positions. The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 23 July 2026 at 5pm. Green Park Interim and Executive Ltd was awarded the contract on 27 July 2026 for £300,000. The contract runs from 27 July 2026 to 26 July 2027. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £300,000. The award was active at the recorded stage. The procurement was evaluated through the framework call-off route, with the requirement covering the buyer’s overall executive recruitment need rather than separately identified lots. The opportunity was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. This award demonstrates a substantial, defined requirement for executive and senior interim recruitment at Health Data Research Service Limited. A credible future competitor would need an established executive search capability, access to senior candidates and the capacity to manage several appointments across different professional disciplines. Relevant expertise includes finance leadership, strategic partnerships, communications and engagement, quality and regulatory leadership, and strategy and policy. Suppliers should be able to understand an evolving operating model and recruit people who can help shape organisational capability and culture, rather than filling routine vacancies alone. The procurement route also shows that framework access and the ability to deliver a structured call-off are commercially important. SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable for this requirement. ## Notice This requirement is for the recruitment of a number of mainly Director Level roles. Over the coming months, HDRS will seek to appoint a number of key executive roles, including a Director of Finance, Director of Strategic Partnerships, Director of Comms and Engagement, Director of Quality and Regulations, and a Director of Strategy and Policy, alongside other senior appointments as the operating model evolves. These appointments will be foundational in shaping HDRS's capability and culture. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3df1d860-1bcd-4b94-add8-9ab64e95a8dc | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | 23 Jul 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 27 Jul 2026 | | Contract period | 27 Jul 2026 - 26 Jul 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £300,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £300,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HEALTH DATA RESEARCH SERVICE LIMITED | | Locality | L | | Postcode area | North West London | | Postcode | NW1 2BF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Bloomsbury | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79610000 - Placement services of personnel ## Release History - 21 Aug 2026 at 16:15 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3df1d860-1bcd-4b94-add8-9ab64e95a8dc ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3df1d860-1bcd-4b94-add8-9ab64e95a8dc 21st August 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.hdrs.com ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
