In plain English
The Office of Rail and Road is looking for a consultant to review how it pays and rewards its staff below the Senior Civil Service. The aim is a fair, consistent pay strategy that staff understand and support, and that keeps the organisation competitive when recruiting and keeping good people.
What the buyer wants
• Carry out a full review of the pay and reward strategy for all grades below the Senior Civil Service • Engage meaningfully with the Executive Committee, employees, the Staff Representative Group and recognised trade unions during the review • Produce a future strategy that delivers equitable outcomes, stays externally competitive, supports recruitment and retention, and promotes a culture of fairness
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any specific qualifications, certifications, insurance or experience requirements, but the work involves formal engagement with recognised trade unions and staff representatives on pay, which small firms without reward strategy experience may find difficult to evidence.
Always check the tender documents.
