What is being bought

Published requirement description

The University has a requirement to provide support services to our students who have been assessed to need assistance whilst at university to enable them to reach their potential.

The Disability Advice team, part of the Student Advice and Guidance team within the Division for Student Experience at the University of Sussex, provide disabled students with personalised study support to enable them to reach their potential at university. Working as part of a wider network, we offer timely, accurate and confidential information, advice,

guidance and resources to remove barriers to learning.

We are seeking to establish an agreement with a suitable preferred supplier who can provide a high-quality fully managed service for Band 1 & 2 Non-Medical Helper (NMH) support for students studying at the University of Sussex for the academic year 2023-24 onwards.

All providers must comply with the IR35 regulations as they apply to the University and ensure all workers are paid under a PAYE system with tax and national insurance deducted at source.
