Description of the procurement
EirGrid has a requirement for skilled staff to assist various functions across the Group in permanent, fixed term, temporary and contract roles. Role durations will vary dependent on business requirements from permanent, fixed term, temporary to contract basis. It is difficult at this stage to estimate the total number of roles to be sourced over the course of the framework; however it is likely to be in the region of 40 individuals per year. These figures are indicative only; actual requirements will fluctuate in line with EirGrid Group resource planning practices.
EirGrid would like to highlight the unique recruitment challenges it faces in the Irish/Northern Irish energy sector, particularly when it comes to the sourcing of candidates for specialist electrical engineering roles.

Description of the procurement
Due to the fast paced and changing environment within EirGrid, there is a need for recruitment specialists to support the EirGrid HR Department with end to end recruitment and selection processes on a project need or ad-hoc basis. The need is likely to arise where sufficient recruitment resource capacity is not available within EirGrid at a given point in time to fulfil the recruitment support needs of the business. This support is likely to be needed to cover leave of EirGrid recruitment staff and periods of intense activity such as recruiting for large internal projects. During these periods EirGrid intends to call on the successful tenderer for this Lot to provide temporary assistance to its HR department in the provision of recruitment and selection services, whereby the managed service provider would provide primarily on-site resource support to EirGrid.
