    Brief

    Essex County Council is seeking delivery partners to manage and expand the Building a Lasting Legacy (BaLL) Programme, an industry-led careers and employability initiative for young people in the construction and built environment sector. The programme currently operates in Chelmsford and will be expanded to Tendring. Organisations should demonstrate expertise in programme management, employer engagement, careers education, and employability and skills delivery. The formal Request for Quotation (RFQ) will be issued in August 2026 with programme mobilisation in November 2026. BaLL aims to raise awareness of construction career opportunities, improve social mobility and employment access, strengthen education-employer partnerships, support corporate social value commitments, and develop a sustainable talent pipeline for Essex. Interested organisations are invited to submit expressions of interest ahead of the formal tender process.
