Description
NHS Health Careers provides careers information on more than 350 careers available in the health service through its website, helpline, events and campaigns. We aim to inform and inspire young people and career switchers into choosing a career in healthcare. NHS Health Careers is part of NHS England. NHS Health Careers exhibits at several national careers events throughout the year, from small events for careers advisers to larger events for young people. Our objectives at these events are to reach as many young people, parents, teachers and careers advisors as we can to make them aware of the range of roles in the NHS and to dispel common myths e.g. you need a degree to work in every NHS job. We aim to inspire and inform them about the roles available and help them realise there is a career for them in the NHS, regardless of background. We are looking to procure a stand builder to help us install and deconstruct a stand at a series of events across the country. The stand is important as it attracts visitors and represents the NHS. We want to be able to build an engaging and professional-looking stand that attracts visitors and inspires them to consider a career in the NHS. The contract will be issued under the NHS Standard PO Terms and Conditions for the Provision of Services. The term of the agreement will be 12 months with an option to extend the contract for a further 12 months to 30 July 2027 subject to funding, commissioner discretion and satisfactory contract performance. The approved budget is up to £27,000 (excluding VAT) .
