Framework RM6277 Non-Clinical Staffing

Public sector recruitment is not easy, but Crown Commercial Service’s Non-Clinical Staffing framework is here to help

According to the i newspaper, in September last year there were 165,000 care worker vacancies in the UK. NHS England has a vacancy rate of 9.7 per cent and one in eight newly qualified teachers leave the profession within one year, and almost one-third leave within five years.

The Society of Local Authority Chief Executive Officers (Solace) has found that 33 per cent of council chief executives and senior managers in England do not have enough skilled staff to run services to an acceptable standard.

Crown Commercial Service’s Framework

RM6277, Non-Clinical Staffing allows all public and third sector organisations to hire non-clinical workers including admin, clerical, catering and maintenance.

The framework is intended for the supply of temporary and fixed term workers and should not be used to fill permanent positions.

All public sector bodies, including central government, local government, blue-light services, NHS contracting authorities, universities and charities are able to buy from the framework. The framework is also part of the NHS Workforce Alliance. As stated in the title, the framework does not include clinical roles, nor does it cover teachers.

Roles that feature on the framework include administration and secretarial roles; finance, accounts and audit roles; IT technicians, E

We understand that the public sector is under pressure to deliver more than ever on increasingly lean budgets.

Transforming and modernising services is a key challenge faced by organisations. They not only need to align with consumer expectations but provide services that are secure, accessible, and work seamlessly. We are proud of our track record in helping organisations transform their administration, corporate function, and facilities recruitment.
