Description

Background
Bernicia is a social housing provider that owns around 14,000 properties and develop new homes across a range of property types and tenures. Whilst predominantly a social landlord, we have successful trading subsidiaries that provide high quality block and facilities management. Our commercial subsidiaries gift-aid their surplus back to Bernicia, which is used to increase the social value we can deliver. As a group we build, rent, sell, and manage homes, provide estate and facilities management and specialist care and support services to over 60,000 customers.

Requirements
Bernicia are looking for a provider of an employee cash health plan for circa 630 employees based across the Northeast to replace a number of current staff benefits in place. To assist us with our requirements we are using an independent broker, and any interested parties should contact adam.brown@thig.co.uk for full details on our requirements. Any contract is not likely to start until early next year and will be offered on a fixed 12-month contract with the option to extend up to an additional 3 years to be reviewed annually. (Where discounts are applicable longer-term contracts may be considered)

Interested parties must contact Adam by 18th October 2024.

PLEASE NOTE all correspondence relating to this project must be sent directly to Adam Brown to avoid any delays in responding. This project is subject to bidders meeting specific criteria and subject to final Executive sign off from Bernicia.
