    Brief

    East Midlands Freeport is exploring the procurement of a comprehensive, outsourced Human Resources service to replace its current provision from Leicestershire County Council. The successful provider will deliver full HR functionality, including strategic planning, operational management, and advisory services. This role is critical as the organisation transitions to independence and establishes itself as a lean, high-growth enterprise operating within complex governance and regulatory frameworks. The provider will need to understand freeport operations and support organizational development during this transformational period. Please note: This is an exploratory engagement only and does not constitute a formal procurement, tender invitation, or commitment to proceed. Participation will not confer any advantage or disadvantage in future procurement activities. Contract dates and values provided are approximate and subject to change.
