The Nottingham City Council is seeking an Independent Financial Adviser to support its Deputyship Team, which manages the financial affairs of vulnerable clients in Nottingham, East Midlands. This tender, identified by reference CPU1969, is currently at the active stage of the procurement process, with a closing date for submissions set for 10 March 2017. The total contract value is £180,000, with the contract period starting on 23 April 2017 and potentially extending for an additional three years.
