II.1.4) Short description
The purpose of the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) is to serve the public interest by setting high standards of corporate governance, reporting and audit and by holding to account those responsible for delivering them.
We were seeking to appoint and work with Recruitment Agencies for our permanent and fixed terms recruitment (and occasional interim requirements). This is the establishment of a Framework Agreement.
Those Agencies must understand our branding and values and be committed to drive high standards with our resourcing alongside being committed to diversity and inclusion.
Those Agency should understand that FRC operates in the public sector and is committed to the attainment of value for money (and minimizing risk). Our supply partners should understand and share that commitment.
FRC operates skills-based job family. These job families are:
• Actuarial (Lot 1)
• Audit & Accountancy (Lot 2)
• Legal (Lot 3)
• Forensic Accountants (Lot 4)
• "All Jobs" (roles that fall outside the scope of the above, for example Human Resources, Information Technology and Governance). (Lot 5)
