## Summary

Powys County Council, in collaboration with Carmarthenshire County Council, has initiated an open tender process for the position of an Independent Member/Chair of the Dyfed and Powys Pension Funds. This procurement, listed under the industry category of pension investment and management services, is active and organised by Powys County Council, a sub-central government authority in the United Kingdom, with the tender closing on 31st August 2026. Interested parties can submit their tenders electronically through the eTenderWales platform, with the deadline for enquiries set for 24th August 2026. The geographical delivery includes regions UKL14 and UKL24, placing this opportunity primarily in South-West and Mid Wales.

Moreover, the potential to extend the contract up to five years, subject to satisfactory performance and continued funding, presents an ideal platform for businesses aiming to deepen their expertise and influence within the public sector pension management industry.
