This tender falls under the recruitment services category and is located in Manchester, England. The submission deadline is set for 24 February 2017, and the contract period will commence on 16 March 2017, lasting until 15 March 2018. The procurement process is identified as a tender, with flexibility required to manage varying numbers of applications from candidates, aiming to shortlist 30 applicants from each participating country for this prestigious leadership programme. This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment and candidate selection processes, particularly those with experience in managing large volumes of applications. Businesses that demonstrate a strong track record in shortlisting candidates and the ability to provide versatile and scalable solutions are encouraged to compete. The British Council is looking for entities that can ensure an efficient and positive experience for applicants, which will benefit companies that can effectively showcase their capabilities in this field. ## Notice This RFP seeks a response to manage the selection of the applicants for our 2017 leaders of the future programme by shortlisting candidates using the agreed selection criteria to numbers of 30 per country. We are seeking proposals that specifically assist us in delivering a positive and efficient experience to all applicants and ensure we attract and select the right calibre of participants, appropriate for a prestigious future leadership scheme which can sit alongside the Chevening Scholarship, the Fulbright Scholarship, World Economic Forum Global Leadership Fellows Programme, UN SDG Young Leaders Forum. As we are unable to be sure how many applications will be made to the programme, we are asking for responses which are flexible to the number of applications they will have to shortlist. The winning bidder should shortlist the applications down to the final 30 in each country, where needed. We ask that commercial responses give a range of costs; referencing the range of application numbers they might be required to shortlist. In response to this RFP we are seeking bids which clearly demonstrate how they would manage this process, their track record in this area and their flexibility and capacity to handle the potential high number of applicants.
