## Summary

The Harris Federation is currently undertaking a tender process to refresh its Preferred Supplier List for recruitment agencies, aimed at providing specialist recruitment services to support staffing requirements for its primary and secondary academies. This initiative falls under the recruitment services category and is set to conclude the tender period on 22nd June 2021. The contract is expected to commence on 1st September 2021 and will run until 31st August 2023. The procurement method employed is an open procedure above the threshold, with the location of the tender being across the United Kingdom, including regions such as London and the South East.

This tender presents significant opportunities for established recruitment agencies, particularly those with experience in the education sector or similar fields, to engage with one of the largest multi-academy trusts in the country. Given the high volume of recruitment demands associated with future academy projects, recruitment agencies that can demonstrate a strong track record and the ability to deliver compliant and high-quality staffing solutions would be well-positioned to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate in this competitive tendering process.

## Notice

Harris Federation is refreshing its Preferred Supplier List (PSL) to secure the provision of specialist recruitment services that support the staffing requirements of all existing, and future, academies within the Federation. As one of the largest multi academy trusts in the country, with a pipeline of future academy projects planned, the Harris Federation has a high volume recruitment demand focused on academy / class based staffing. We are seeking the services of established recruitment agencies with a proven track record of delivering mandates in education, or appropriate sectors, and have the means to deliver compliant, high quality staffing solutions for our growing number of primary and secondary academies.
