## Summary

The Government Actuary’s Department commissioned recruitment services to support the appointment of a senior trainee actuary. The requirement is personnel placement: identifying and supporting the appointment of a candidate for a specialist actuarial trainee position. The buyer is a central government department based in London, and the stated delivery location is the United Kingdom. The procurement was arranged as a single lot. This is a focused recruitment requirement rather than a general staffing contract, so its relevance is strongest for recruitment agencies with experience sourcing actuarial or other technically specialised professional candidates for public sector employers.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to EMERALD GROUP LIMITED, a Plymouth-based small and medium-sized enterprise. The department used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed on 25 May 2026 and runs from 26 May 2026 to 25 May 2027. Its value is £12,134.25 excluding VAT, or £14,561.10 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the recruitment service for the senior trainee actuary appointment. The award is active and the contract is active. No separate evaluation criteria are recorded for this direct award.

For recruitment firms, this award demonstrates demand from the Government Actuary’s Department for specialist hiring support to fill a senior trainee actuary role. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to show the ability to source candidates with relevant actuarial potential and match them to a specialist public sector appointment. The selected supplier is a small and medium-sized business, indicating that delivery was not confined to a large recruitment group. The buyer used a direct award without competition for this contract, so the route used here provides context for how this particular requirement was sourced, rather than evidence of a competitive selection process or formal evaluation criteria.
