Official UK procurement notice
Destination Nuclear · UK public procurement notice
Authority: Ministry of Defence (Central government)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionDestination Nuclear brings together government organisations across nuclear and civil sectors, suppliers and educational institutions to attract new, and retain existing talent across the entire nuclear, to help fill critical skills gaps. The campaign aims to create awareness of careers in the nuclear sector, attract people from other sectors to a career in nuclear, drive individuals to consider employment in the nuclear sector and ultimately increase the number of quality applications to roles in the sector.
The Supplier already provides this service on an expired contract. This is an interim contracting arrangement to allow the Destination Nuclear campaign to continue, whilst a longer term competitive tender can be run.
