The future shape of unitary local government in Oxfordshire will be decided by Government in the summer. Ahead of that decision, Oxford City Council is working collaboratively with neighbouring councils to compile data on all contracts and will collectively start to consider how these might be consolidated within the new unitary council(s) that will vest in April 2028. \nOxford City Council at the point of publishing this Tender Notice can provide details of the current demand and scope of requirements to interested suppliers.

The future shape of unitary local government in Oxfordshire will be decided by Government in the summer.

Introduction\nOxford City Council (OCC) has ambitious plans to accelerate the delivery of affordable and council-owned housing, improve public services, and lead the way in sustainability and inclusion.

Strategic Context\nOxford City Council's Strategy 2024-2028 outlines five key priorities:\n1.\tGood, affordable homes\n2.\tA strong, fair economy\n3.\tThriving communities\n4.\tZero carbon Oxford\n5.\tA well-run council\nKey planned activities include:\n•\tAccelerating the development of affordable housing\n•\tTackling health inequalities and supporting young people into employment\n•\tImproving the condition and management of 8,000+ council-owned homes\n•\tContinuing to deliver core statutory services such as waste collection, housing, licensing, planning, and regulatory services\nOur People Strategy underpins these ambitions, focusing on building a high-performing, inclusive, and agile workforce. It also addresses challenges such as:\n•\tMental health and wellbeing\n•\tCost-of-living pressures\n•\tTechnological advancement and changing legislation\n•\tFinancial constraints and a competitive talent market\nVision: To be a high-performing, agile, and inclusive organisation delivering value for Oxford's citizens.\nMission: To secure the Council's future success by attracting, developing, and retaining a talented, diverse, and committed workforce.\n3. Procurement Overview: What We Are Looking For\nAs part of our upcoming procurement exercise in 2025, we are seeking to refresh and reshape our recruitment agency framework to better reflect the needs of the organisation and the modern labour market. The council's annual agency spend is 2.5 million pounds per year.\nIn accordance with public procurement regulations we will be launching a new tender for recruitment agency services.\nCurrent Framework Overview\nOur current recruitment framework consists of two lots:\n•\tLot 1: Professional and Business Support\n•\tLot 2: Housing, Property and Regulatory Services\nWork is currently distributed across four agencies, primarily supporting temporary staffing needs.\nFuture Vision\nGoing forward, we propose a more tailored and specialist structure, with individual lots aligned by job function rather than service area. This is aimed at:\n•\tEnabling greater flexibility\n•\tEncouraging supplier specialisation\n•\tSupporting hard-to-fill and business-critical roles\nProposed Lots\n•\tICT & Digital\n•\tLegal Services\n•\tPlanning and Regeneration\n•\tFinance\n•\tRegulatory Services & Housing\n•\tProfessional and Business Support\n•\tProperty & Surveying\nWe are particularly interested in engaging with specialist agencies that have deep sector knowledge in areas such as surveying, legal, and housing services.\nProposed Framework \nThe proposed lots may be structured either as a fixed four-year framework or as an open framework. We are keen to hear suppliers' views on these options before finalising the approach, and this will be a key topic of discussion during the Industry Day.\n4. Key Objectives for the New Framework\n•\tIncrease access to diverse and qualified candidates\n•\tReduce time-to-hire and recruitment delays\n•\tAddress skills shortages in key technical and professional roles\n•\tImprove market responsiveness for permanent hard-to-fill vacancies\n5.

Introduction\nOxford City Council (OCC) has ambitious plans to accelerate the delivery of affordable and council-owned housing, improve public services, and lead the way in sustainability and inclusion. We are proud to serve a diverse community and work collaboratively to reduce inequality, improve wellbeing, and respond proactively to the challenges facing our city.\nWe are a values-led organisation, committed to:\n•\tDelivering service excellence\n•\tActing with accountability\n•\tFostering innovation and inclusion\n•\tCommunicating with honesty and respect\nAs part of our ongoing transformation and future workforce planning, we are reviewing our approach to recruitment agency partnerships and would like to invite providers to engage with us at this early stage.\nYou can find out more about our work and strategic priorities at: Oxford City Council Website\n2. Strategic Context\nOxford City Council's Strategy 2024-2028 outlines five key priorities:\n1.\tGood, affordable homes\n2.\tA strong, fair economy\n3.\tThriving communities\n4.\tZero carbon Oxford\n5.\tA well-run council\nKey planned activities include:\n•\tAccelerating the development of affordable housing\n•\tTackling health inequalities and supporting young people into employment\n•\tImproving the condition and management of 8,000+ council-owned homes\n•\tContinuing to deliver core statutory services such as waste collection, housing, licensing, planning, and regulatory services\nOur People Strategy underpins these ambitions, focusing on building a high-performing, inclusive, and agile workforce. It also addresses challenges such as:\n•\tMental health and wellbeing\n•\tCost-of-living pressures\n•\tTechnological advancement and changing legislation\n•\tFinancial constraints and a competitive talent market\nVision: To be a high-performing, agile, and inclusive organisation delivering value for Oxford's citizens.\nMission: To secure the Council's future success by attracting, developing, and retaining a talented, diverse, and committed workforce.\n3. Procurement Overview: What We Are Looking For\nAs part of our upcoming procurement exercise in 2025, we are seeking to refresh and reshape our recruitment agency framework to better reflect the needs of the organisation and the modern labour market. The council's annual agency spend is 2.5 million pounds per year.\nIn accordance with public procurement regulations we will be launching a new tender for recruitment agency services.\nCurrent Framework Overview\nOur current recruitment framework consists of two lots:\n•\tLot 1: Professional and Business Support\n•\tLot 2: Housing, Property and Regulatory Services\nWork is currently distributed across four agencies, primarily supporting temporary staffing needs.\nFuture Vision\nGoing forward, we propose a more tailored and specialist structure, with individual lots aligned by job function rather than service area. This is aimed at:\n•\tEnabling greater flexibility\n•\tEncouraging supplier specialisation\n•\tSupporting hard-to-fill and business-critical roles\nProposed Lots\n•\tICT & Digital\n•\tLegal Services\n•\tPlanning and Regeneration\n•\tFinance\n•\tRegulatory Services & Housing\n•\tProfessional and Business Support\n•\tProperty & Surveying\nWe are particularly interested in engaging with specialist agencies that have deep sector knowledge in areas such as surveying, legal, and housing services.\nProposed Framework \nThe proposed lots may be structured either as a fixed four-year framework or as an open framework. We are keen to hear suppliers' views on these options before finalising the approach, and this will be a key topic of discussion during the Industry Day.\n4. Key Objectives for the New Framework\n•\tIncrease access to diverse and qualified candidates\n•\tReduce time-to-hire and recruitment delays\n•\tAddress skills shortages in key technical and professional roles\n•\tImprove market responsiveness for permanent hard-to-fill vacancies" }, { "releaseID": "028593-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-03-27T14:27:39Z", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Oxford City Council is undertaking a procurement exercise to appoint up to 21 suitably qualified and experienced recruitment agencies to support the hiring of temporary, interim, and permanent staff across a wide range of service areas.

The future shape of unitary local government in Oxfordshire will be decided by Government in the summer. Ahead of that decision, Oxford City Council is working collaboratively with neighbouring councils to compile data on all contracts and will collectively start to consider how these might be consolidated within the new unitary council(s) that will vest in April 2028. \nOxford City Council at the point of publishing this Tender Notice can provide details of the current demand and scope of requirements to interested suppliers.
