Specialist Recruiter – connecting the best Health and Social Care talent with the UK’s leading private providers

I support clients with most recruitment/resourcing scenarios and challenges – including:

• Fast-response contingency needs. 

• High volume and/or multi-site projects. 

• Discreet and confidential search. 

• Strategic, long-term workforce planning. 

Teamwork and collaboration.

Indigo + clients = many more times the sum of our parts. 

A universal challenge often facing many clients – are other significant demands time, headspace and resources – people and organisation are busy, caught up in the intensity of the day to day.   The idea of stepping back – carrying out a critical review of the recruitment strategy – what’s working, what’s not – and why not – is a luxury they often don’t have. 

That’s where we can make the biggest and best contribution for most of our partner clients. 

Indigo Healthcare by numbers – ‘what gets measured – gets done’. 

We have over 480-hours/60 working days capacity/capability available per week – every week. Experience, skills, know-how, expertise, energy and can do – that ensures the right results, every time.

• Fulfilment - roles taken vs roles successfully filled = 98.4%.

My role and focus are to develop our Health and Social Care division – making the most of the investment, experience, networks, resources and technology Indigo has at its disposal. 

High-quality Health and Social Care provision is fundamental to a well-functioning society and economy.  

 Private and independent providers deliver 84% of adult social care in England. Although the challenges are well known – the gaps between live/open vacancies and suitable, available candidates – continue to widen.
