Description

The Horserace Betting Levy Board (HBLB) is a non-departmental public body (NDPB) sponsored by Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) responsible for the collection and expenditure of the Horserace Betting Levy worth approximately £100m per year. The organisation has a team of 15-20 staff and more information can be found on HBLB's website (www.hblb.org.uk). Given its size HBLB traditionally outsources delivery of its HR services and is inviting appropriate business partners to tender for the provision of these services. The contract has been awarded subsequent to the above invitation to tender.
