Tender Alert

A notification about a UK public sector recruitment tender, framework or opportunity relevant to recruitment agencies.

A tender alert is a notification about a live UK public sector recruitment opportunity, usually a tender, a place on a framework, or a call off under an existing framework, that a recruitment agency could bid for. Alerts include the buyer, the scope, the deadline and a link to the bid documentation.

Bidding for public sector recruitment work has its own timelines, evaluation criteria and compliance requirements, and deadlines are strict.

Why it matters

Tender alerts give agencies a chance to bid for structured, high value public sector work they would otherwise miss, and to plan resourcing around known deadlines.
