    Brief

    This procurement is for Senior Civil Service (SCS) Assessment Services, managed by the Cabinet Office (CO) and HM Treasury Commercial on behalf of the CO as the Contracting Authority. The assessment services will support recruitment across two grade bands: G6 to SCS1 (lower band) and SCS2 to SCS4 (upper band). All candidates will complete an externally recognised psychometric assessment to evaluate their behaviours. Candidates applying for SCS2-4 positions will undertake additional assessments, including a second psychometric test to identify leadership derailment risks and an Interactive Work Sample Assessment (IWA) suite. Suppliers should be experienced in delivering large-scale civil service assessment programmes and have access to validated, externally recognised psychometric tools.
