What is being bought

Published requirement description

The University of Kent requires casual staff during their business-critical conference periods, at the Canterbury campus. These staff will supplement an in-house team of substantive cleaners and will work alongside them to ensure the residential accommodation is turned around from student accommodation to hotel standard rooms and shared spaces.

The successful recruitment agency shall supply, induct and manage their candidates and all costs are deemed to be within these tender documents. The recruitment agency’s staff shall be competent to undertake the necessary tasks relating to this contract.

It is essential that any potential recruitment agency who wishes to submit a tender response can demonstrate current and substantial experience for providing the provision of temporary cleaning staff, and that this is similar to the requirements that the University is requesting.
