This process falls under the recruitment services category, with a CPV code of 79600000, indicating a focus on executive search services for senior role recruitment. This contract covers geographical locations including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and more. The process used a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. It has progressed to the award stage, with the contract period running from 3 June 2025 to 1 June 2026.
