Brief Description of Requirement
This requirement invites quotations to provide the secretariat for The Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers (commonly known as the Researcher Development Concordat, hereby referred to as the RDC) for two years (24 months) from the start of the contract. The RDC is an agreement between stakeholders to improve the employment and support for researchers and research careers in higher education in the UK.
