## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council has recently completed a procurement process for the "Provision of Executive Leadership Recruitment" services, aimed at supporting the appointment of Chief Officials. This initiative is part of a broader transformational change within the council to enhance service delivery for Edinburgh residents. The procurement was conducted through a selective (restricted) procedure and was classified under the services category. The contract was awarded on 21 June 2016, with a total value of £108,134.40, and the project is situated in Edinburgh, UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in recruitment services, particularly those with expertise in executive leadership roles. Companies capable of supporting talent attraction and the appointment processes for senior management positions will find this contract well-suited to their capabilities. Small and medium enterprises in the recruitment sector, especially those located in or near Edinburgh, are encouraged to engage with such procurement processes to expand their market presence and contribute to the council’s reformative efforts.

## Notice

The City of Edinburgh Council is working through a period of significant transformational change which will re-define and re-shape how services are delivered to ensure we are focussed on the priorities for Edinburgh's residents and address the significant financial challenges we face. It is anticipated that a number of permanent Chief Officer (Director and Head of Service) level vacancies will arise as part of the change process. Therefore we require a contractor to undertake the talent attraction and support the appointment process for Chief Officials.
