Request to appoint recruitment agency to assist the Department with the head-hunting exercise.

An issuing body identified as Transport has advertised for a recruitment agency to run a head-hunting process on its behalf. That is close to the whole of what the published record contains. No further particulars accompany the notice. There is no indication of the posts to be filled, the number of placements sought, the length of any engagement, the basis on which an agency would be paid, or the experience and documents a bidder would need in order to respond. Nothing in the material describes the work itself, and no set of bidder requirements can be drawn from it. A firm that might otherwise be interested has nothing to assess against. The notice does not say what the assignment entails, what a submission must contain, or what qualifies an agency to be considered.
