    Brief

    This opportunity invites qualified external consultants to be appointed through the ESPO 3S_26 Strategic HR & Recruitment Services Framework. The framework is designed to source specialized consultancy expertise for organizational needs. Consultants selected through this framework will provide strategic human resources and recruitment services. This is a framework-based procurement route, meaning consultants must first be accredited on the ESPO framework before delivering services. Organizations using this framework benefit from pre-vetted suppliers, established terms and conditions, and streamlined procurement processes.
