Authority: Scottish Police Authority (Central government)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe recruitment department within Police Scotland regularly have a requirement to publish job adverts on recruitment platforms to reach the wider recruitment pool via the use of job board credits.
Therefore the Authority has a requirement to put in place a compliant contract for the ongoing purchase of job board credits from a range of suitable online job board platforms for staff recruitment. This will enable the recruitment department to have control over where and when adverts are published and on which platforms, in the hope that it will attract high calibre external applicants for Business as usual (BAU) and hard to fill niche roles for both The Scottish Police Authority (SPA) and Police Scotland.
