- Why no open competition
- Urgency
- Published justification
WRAP has been going through significant organisation change and post the change needs to return to normal operations as rapidly as possible to minimise disruption to meet the organisation strategy, WRAP’s impact and ability to raise income. There is a need for a period of stable leadership to support teams following a significant restructure. Due to a resignation, we will be losing a key member of the executive team and whilst we undertake a recruitment search for a permanent replacement there is a need to cover this gap on an interim basis to minimise the impact of knowledge gaps and operational disruption.
