The CMA was established on 1 April 2014. SCS salaries have not been benchmarked since before the creation of the organisation. This financial year, in light of the growth of the CMA as a result of EU exit, the CMA Remuneration Committee will formally review SCS salaries to ensure they are both competitive to attract and retain colleagues. The CMA wishes to engage a specialist reward consultancy to conduct salary benchmarking for a range of SCS roles across a range of comparable employers. ## CPV classification Research consultancy services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/ff6253ea-ab09-45ba-a4f6-75bb61e17ef7) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
