Description

In September 2024, FSCS published a Prior Information Notice in relation to procurement of master vendor contracts under two Lots, (i) Claims handler and (ii) Non-claims handler. The two Lots covering both permanent and contractor roles across the Scheme. Following a Supplier Briefing event, FSCS decided to procure all its requirements for temporary and permanent personnel under a single Master Vendor contract. FSCS already has a specialist recruitment framework for executive and non-executive roles. The new master vendor contract will be in addition to this arrangement and will therefore not include executive and non-executive roles. The services will include supporting a FSCS's People Team to attract, recruit and retain candidates with the right blend of skills, qualifications, experience, knowledge, and attitude into the right roles and in the right place to deliver on the Scheme's strategy. The services must include the smooth transition from our existing master vendor arrangement.
