Recruitment Applicant Tracking System (ATS)

Portsmouth City Council (PCC) are a large unitary authority with an employee headcount of approximately 4500 people, excluding schools. This is made up of around 600 managers who will require more regular access and use of the recruitment system and up to a further 3900 potential other users who may be required to support the recruitment process, such as interview panel members or for administrative purposes. A significant number of employees will not require access to the system. The ability to deliver key services to support our communities depends upon our ability to acquire and retain the right people at the right time. We are committed to continue to build our reputation for excellence and innovation and to recruit employees with the right skills, attitudes, values and behaviours we need now and for the future. The recruitment system will be key in helping PCC to achieve this aim. The initial contract term will be for 3 years with possibility of extending the term on a rolling basis in increments to be agreed, subject to the agreement and performance of both parties.
