## Description
NHS England would like to engage with potential suppliers via a Request for Information (RFI) document to understand the capacity and capability of the market. Currently we have a large number of Chairs and NEDs coming to the end of their terms of office, alongside others stepping down. We have also experienced difficulty in recruiting to these roles and we need to refresh our talent pipeline to help with future recruitment in this area. There is a general sentiment that Chair and NED roles have changed over recent years, the introduction of ICBs, increased complexity of the system and an increase in the numbers of shared leadership and group arrangements are often cited as factors. The role of the non-executive director within the NHS is incredibly important. That is why we are prioritising a national media attraction campaign to develop our talent pipeline by inviting suitable candidates to express interest in becoming a first-time NHS non-executive director. We therefore wish to engage an external media or recruitment agency to plan, create and deliver a campaign to attract 300 first time NHS non-executive directors, typically experienced individuals from a wide range of professional backgrounds who often have experience in leading or managing large or complex organisations. To review and respond to the RFI document please go to the following link https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome Reference C366727
