FAQs

How quickly can you deliver a shortlist?+

Timing depends on the role, location, requirements and available candidate evidence. We agree a realistic search plan after reviewing the brief rather than promising an unsupported turnaround.

What if the placement doesn't work out?+

Any replacement or aftercare commitment is governed by the written Terms of Business agreed for the placement. We will explain the applicable conditions before candidates are submitted.

Support Workers (core focus), HCAs, Carers, Senior Carers, RGNs, RMNs, RNLDs, Deputies and Registered Managers — permanent only.

What areas do you cover?+

Greater London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Essex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Hertfordshire and Gloucestershire.

What candidate evidence is available?+

We show the checks and documents recorded for the individual candidate, including anything still outstanding. Employers should complete their own role-specific onboarding and compliance decisions.
