The Provision of Recruitment Services for the Government Legal Department

The Government Legal Department (GLD) is pleased to launch this major opportunity to partner with one of the largest and most influential legal organisations in the United Kingdom. GLD is seeking a highly capable, innovative and collaborative supplier to deliver end-to-end recruitment services that will directly support the attraction, assessment and recruitment of outstanding legal professionals for government. This contract represents a unique opportunity to shape the future of legal recruitment across central government and to influence the capability of the UK's legal system at the heart of public service. As the UK's principal provider of legal services to central government, GLD plays a critical role in supporting the rule of law, advising on the policy agenda of the day, leading high-profile litigation, drafting and shaping legislation, and helping government departments deliver essential public services. With more than 3,400 employees-including around 2,600 solicitors and barristers-GLD is one of the largest legal organisations in the country. Our work touches every aspect of public life: from national security and international trade to employment rights, commercial agreements, public inquiries, constitutional matters and major public policy reforms. Through this procurement, GLD seeks a recruitment partner capable of delivering a consistently high-quality, flexible and responsive service that can operate across a wide range of legal and cross-functional professional roles. This includes recruitment campaigns for qualified lawyers, senior legal specialists, commercial lawyers, employment lawyers, planning lawyers, public and private law practitioners, and a wide variety of specialist roles essential to the operation of modern government. The successful supplier will also support the recruitment of early talent, including legal trainees, pupillage candidates, legal apprentices and wider early-career colleagues entering the Government Legal Profession. These early talent routes are vital to the long-term capability of GLD and to the diversity and inclusiveness of the government legal workforce. In addition to legal recruitment, the contract will include optional non-core services to support recruitment into cross-functional professional roles (such as HR, Digital, Finance and Commercial functions), Senior Civil Service (SCS) campaigns, and high-volume sifting or assessment activities where surge capacity is required. The successful supplier will therefore play an important role not only in shaping GLD's legal workforce, but also in supporting the organisation's broader operational capability and leadership pipeline. GLD is looking for a partner who shares our values and aims to deliver recruitment services of the highest quality. We are seeking suppliers who can demonstrate a commitment to excellence, innovation, equality, diversity and inclusion, and who understand the importance of building a transparent, fair and candidate-centred recruitment process in line with the Civil Service Recruitment Principles. The successful partner will be expected to provide insightful market intelligence, data-driven recommendations, skilled assessment and selection expertise, and high-quality candidate management throughout the process. This procurement also offers suppliers the opportunity to work directly with GLD on long-term strategic workforce planning. GLD is undergoing significant organisational transformation, including enhancements to digital platforms, modernisation of HR systems, and the development of a national delivery model ("A National GLD") that reflects GLD's growing footprint across the UK. Our recruitment partner will have a front-row seat in shaping how talent is identified, attracted and selected for one of the most respected legal employers in the public sector. The successful supplier will be able to work collaboratively with GLD to introduce best-practice improvements, modern recruitment technologies, AI-enabled approaches (where appropriate), refined assessments, inclusive hiring practices and evidence-based attraction strategies that resonate with the modern legal talent market. The contract term is 48 months, with the option to extend for up to 24 further months in 12-month increments. This provides suppliers with the stability and longevity to embed high-quality services, introduce meaningful innovation, and build deep relationships with the organisation. GLD values partnership working and is looking for a supplier who can act as a genuine extension of our internal recruitment team-bringing external expertise, insight and agility to complement GLD's strategic HR and operational functions. TUPE may apply to this contract. GLD will make anonymised staffing information available to shortlisted bidders to support due diligence and pricing considerations. Compliance with data protection, confidentiality requirements and the highest standards of information governance will be essential for all bidders wishing to engage with TUPE information. The successful supplier will be required to: • Deliver high-quality recruitment and assessment processes across all core legal and early talent routes • Provide targeted attraction strategies, particularly for hard-to-fill and specialist roles • Design and deliver high-quality assessments with regular analysis of adverse impact • Provide insight, MI and market intelligence to support strategic decision-making • Offer surge capacity for high-volume or urgent campaigns • Deliver optional services for cross-functional professional recruitment and Senior Civil Service roles • Operate in compliance with Cabinet Office controls, Civil Service Recruitment Principles, GLD systems and data governance requirements • Continuously improve services throughout the contract through innovation, technology, candidate experience enhancement and collaborative partnership working This is a prestigious opportunity for a supplier to work at the heart of the UK legal system and support one of the country's most respected legal organisations. We welcome bids from suppliers who can bring creativity, capability, robustness and a genuine appetite for partnership.
