## Summary

Health Data Research Service Limited procured personnel placement services for the recruitment of a Chief Commercial Officer and related work. The appointment was intended to be foundational in shaping the organisation’s commercial capability and culture, rather than a routine recruitment exercise. The requirement sits within the services category and concerns a senior commercial leadership appointment. Delivery is associated with the NW1 area of London. The buyer is Health Data Research Service Limited, a health data research organisation based in London. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations, indicating that the requirement was open in principle to smaller specialist providers as well as larger recruitment businesses.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a direct single-tender action below the applicable threshold, rather than an open competitive procedure. The tender deadline was 5 August 2026 at 5pm, and the award was made on 7 August 2026. RSA Interims Limited was selected for a contract valued at £104,000. The contract runs from 7 August 2026 to 6 August 2027. The requirement was evaluated as a single recruitment and related-services package, with no separate lots identified. The award is active and the tender is complete. The award outcome shows that Health Data Research Service Limited engaged a specialist supplier for this senior appointment and associated work.

For suppliers assessing comparable future demand from Health Data Research Service Limited, this procurement demonstrates a need for senior commercial recruitment linked to organisational development, capability building and culture. Credible competitors would need to identify and attract candidates for a Chief Commercial Officer-level role, understand senior commercial leadership requirements, and support an appointment whose impact extends beyond filling a vacancy. Relevant experience would include executive search, interim management recruitment or specialist personnel placement, together with the ability to advise on role definition and cultural fit. Smaller firms and voluntary or community-sector organisations were considered suitable, so a focused specialist provider could be credible if it can demonstrate the reach, judgement and delivery capacity needed for a senior appointment.
