## Summary

Platform Housing Limited procured LinkedIn job advertisement services to support recruitment and raise the organisation’s brand awareness. The requirement is a recruitment service centred on membership of LinkedIn, enabling the buyer to advertise jobs and reach candidates through a recognised recruitment platform. This is a service rather than a goods or construction opportunity, and the procurement’s classification is recruitment services (CPV 79600000). Platform Housing Limited is the buyer, based in Solihull. The selected supplier is LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, a large organisation based in Dublin. The requirement concerns recruitment activity for Platform Housing Limited and its employer brand, so it is most relevant to recruitment-platform providers, employment advertising businesses and suppliers able to provide comparable access to candidate markets.

The procurement has been completed through a direct award to LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, under a continuing partnership rationale: LinkedIn was considered able to provide well-recognised recruitment across the market. One lot was completed. The recorded award value is £135,749.99 gross, including taxes, and the award is above the relevant threshold. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 1 August 2029. A signature milestone was scheduled for 7 September 2026. The award covers recruitment services associated with the LinkedIn job advertisement and membership requirement. The published outcome identifies LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company as the selected supplier. The process was not evaluated through an open competition; the stated route was a direct award.

This procurement demonstrates Platform Housing Limited’s demand for a substantial, organisation-wide recruitment advertising and employer-branding capability delivered through a recognised professional network. A supplier seeking comparable work should be able to provide access to a broad candidate audience, job advertising functionality and membership-based recruitment tools, while supporting an employer’s visibility in the market. Credibility would also depend on maintaining a continuing service partnership and demonstrating that the platform is widely recognised for recruitment, since those points underpinned the buyer’s direct-award rationale. Recruitment technology providers, specialist employment advertising platforms and established talent-attraction businesses with demonstrable reach would be the closest competitors when this requirement returns to the market.
