## Summary

British Business Bank plc commissioned recruitment services to appoint three non-executive directors. The requirement covers recruitment for three roles, with delivery in the United Kingdom. This is a professional recruitment assignment focused on senior board-level appointments for a public business bank. The buyer is British Business Bank plc, based in Sheffield. The service category is recruitment services (CPV 79600000).

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Russell Reynolds Associates Limited. The award date was 20 January 2026, and the contract runs from 21 January 2026 to 31 October 2026. The awarded contract value is £125,000. The buyer used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 20 January 2026 at 17:00 UTC. The requirement was assessed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded procurement information does not give evaluation criteria or a breakdown into lots.

This award shows demand from British Business Bank plc for specialist recruitment of non-executive directors, with three appointments handled through a single framework call-off. Russell Reynolds Associates Limited was selected, demonstrating that a supplier able to deliver senior-level recruitment for a UK public business bank was credible for this assignment. SMEs were considered suitable, so a smaller recruitment firm may be relevant if it can demonstrate the reach, judgement and delivery capacity needed for multiple board appointments. For a comparable requirement to be competitive, a supplier would need a strong record in identifying, assessing and placing non-executive candidates, and the capacity to manage several searches for the same buyer.
