## Summary

The Cabinet Office has completed the procurement process for the appointment of a Cabinet Office Director, focusing on executive search and selection within the recruitment services industry. The procurement process was conducted under the legal basis of the EU Directive 2014/24, utilizing a limited procurement method via a CCS framework (RM6290). This approach allowed for an award without prior publication of a call for competition, as the procurement fell outside the scope of the directive's application. The key contract, valued at £56,750, was awarded to Russell Reynolds and signed on 1st August 2025. This process, located in London, UK, involved a further competition from a framework for executive recruitment, and though one lot was cancelled, the award remains active.

This tender offers significant prospects for businesses specializing in executive recruitment services, particularly those experienced in framework agreements and providing high-quality, cost-effective solutions. Companies with expertise in managing tailored recruitment processes for national government agencies could benefit greatly from similar future opportunities. Large-scale recruitment firms and those skilled in navigating complex procurement frameworks will find this contract highly relevant to their capabilities and growth strategies. With a 90/10 quality/price award criterion, businesses adept at balancing quality service delivery with competitive pricing are well-positioned to succeed in such opportunities.
