Cantium provides tailored ICT, HR, and Finance services to its customers across the UK within the Education, Local Authority, Health, and the Private sector.

As a LATCo we are proud of our Public Sector heritage, which has given us a foundation in business delivery and infrastructure insight.

This uniquely enables us to operate as a private company whilst contributing to the success of the Local Authority.

Cantium has recently reviewed its recruitment strategy and is now in a position to finalise this by creating a preferred supplier list (PSL) of agencies, comprising of two different and distinct recruitment agencies; IT specialist agencies able to cover the complete range of IT roles required by Cantium, and generalist agencies able to fulfil requirements for all support functions within Cantium.

Cantium is looking to engage up to 10 agencies to form our Preferred Suppliers List.

The contract is for a maximum length of 36 months based on an initial fixed 12-month period, after which a 3-months break clause will apply to the balance of the term.

The contract will expire in its entirety after 36 months or earlier if the break clause is applied.
