eRecruitment Applicant Tracking System (ATS)

The University of Exeter is looking for a partner to provide an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) SaaS solution to underpin our Recruitment process for academic and professional staff.

The University of Exeter has around 6,000 colleagues from 180 different countries, and we offer a diverse and engaging environment in which to work. We aim to provide employment opportunities which meet our business needs and match our employment standards along with our shared University values.

Our recruitment process advertises around 2000 roles per year and has around 22000 applicants for these positions.

It is apparent that our Recruitment process needs to be supported by a robust IT system that meets the requirements of key stakeholders.

Amongst other capabilities, any new IT system will;

• improve user experience for candidates (currently impacting our employer

brand) and for recruitment managers,

• will provide self-service options for all users, will enhance our ability to capture talent in competitive markets, and
• will provide comprehensive reporting to give senior level visibility of the recruitment process.

We intend to award a contract to a single supplier for the provision of the required eRecruitment Applicant Tracking System (ATS).

The intention is to award a contract for an initial three (3) year fixed term, with two (2) further optional extension periods of 12months each

The selected supplier will be required to implement, host, support / maintain, and manage the lifecycle of the proposed solution over the duration of the contract to deliver on the University’s stated requirements in full.
