## Summary

UK Health Security Agency procured LinkedIn recruitment services to attract candidates and support recruitment. The service covers job advertising, recruiter licences and a careers page. This is a recruitment-platform service combining employer advertising and tools for recruiters, rather than a general software supply. The stated delivery location is Porton Down, with the wider location identified as the United Kingdom. The requirement is for the agency’s recruitment activity; it is not described as a service for other public bodies or as a broader recruitment campaign.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to LinkedIn. The agency used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The stated tender value was £224,490, while the award value was £269,388; these are separate published figures. The award was made on 10 September 2026. The contract period runs from 16 September 2026 to 15 September 2029. The tender deadline was 1 September 2026. The requirement was presented as a single service rather than divided into lots. The stated suitability settings indicate that the procurement was not considered suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are set out in the supplied process information.

This award demonstrates demand from UK Health Security Agency for an integrated recruitment presence on LinkedIn: job advertising, recruiter licences and a careers page to attract candidates. A credible competitor when this specific requirement next reaches the market would need to provide all three elements as a joined-up service, with the platform and operational capacity to support the agency’s recruitment activity over a multi-year contract. The selected supplier was LinkedIn, and the requirement was bought through a framework call-off, so experience of supplying recruitment services through public-sector frameworks would be relevant. The stated suitability settings point to a procurement aimed beyond SME and voluntary-sector suppliers; businesses considering comparable work should be prepared to deliver at an established platform-provider scale. No particular accreditation or technical standard is identified.
