We are a specialist primary care recruitment agency — not a generalist firm with a healthcare desk. Every consultant, every process, and every placement is built around one sector: primary care.
Whether you are a clinician looking for your next role or a practice that needs the right person in seat fast — our process is designed to make it simple, fast, and reliable.
Clinicians looking for locum sessions, salaried roles, or portfolio arrangements in primary care.
Register once. We manage your compliance centrally, match you to the right sessions, and handle all the admin — so you can focus on clinical work.
See the candidate process →GP practices, PCNs, NHS Trusts, urgent care providers and OOH services that need reliable clinical staffing.
Tell us what you need. We respond within two hours with verified candidates — compliance already checked, ready to work.
See the client process →Submit your CV and professional details via our secure registration portal. We ask for the basics — your name, contact details, GMC or NMC number, specialty, and preferred location. No lengthy forms and no telephone screening before you are ready.
🔗 Register via Vincere: Our portal is integrated with our CRM, so your details go directly to a specialist consultant — not a generic inbox.
A primary care recruitment consultant — someone who works exclusively in your sector, not a generalist — will contact you within 24 hours. We take time to understand your situation: where you want to work, what flexibility you need, your rate expectations, and any personal circumstances that matter.
📞 Real conversation, not a script. We want to understand your career, not just fill a slot. The quality of the briefing at this stage determines how well we match you.
Our compliance team verifies every credential required before your first placement. This includes real-time GMC or NMC registration checks, DBS verification, indemnity certificate review, right to work documentation, occupational health clearance, two clinical references, and all mandatory training certificates.
✅ Centralised and maintained: We hold your compliance pack and alert you proactively when anything is due for renewal — DBS, indemnity, BLS, and other mandatory training. You never need to resubmit paperwork for each new booking.
We match you to locum sessions or permanent roles based on your specialty, location preferences, availability, and rate requirements. We work across GP surgeries, PCNs, urgent treatment centres, OOH providers, and NHS Trusts. We will not present you with roles that are unsuitable, too far away, or at rates below your minimum.
📍 Your preferences matter: If you want regular anchor sessions at one practice, a varied roster across a region, or a specific type of clinical environment — we build your diary around that, not the other way round.
We manage all the administrative overhead — booking confirmation, timesheet processing via our dedicated app, invoicing, and payment. Our consultants stay in contact after placement to ensure the working arrangement is right for you and to address any issues quickly.
📱 SHR Group E-Timesheets App: Available on iOS and Android. Submit timesheets, track bookings, and manage your availability from your phone.
Contact us by phone, email, or via our vacancy registration form. We need the basics: the role, the dates, the location, the clinical requirements, and the rate. For planned cover, a brief is all we need. For urgent requirements, a two-minute phone call is enough to get us started.
⚡ Response within two hours: During business hours, we respond to every new vacancy within two hours. For genuine emergencies, call us directly — we will prioritise immediately.
We draw from our active network of pre-verified primary care clinicians. Every candidate we present has already had their compliance checked — registration confirmed online, DBS verified, indemnity reviewed, references obtained. You are not screening from scratch for each placement.
📋 Compliance portfolio included: When we present a candidate, their full compliance pack is available for your records. CQC-ready from day one.
We present you with one or more suitable candidates. You review their profile and confirm the booking — or let us know if the fit is not right and we will source an alternative. There is no pressure, no hard sell, and no obligation to accept the first candidate presented.
Booking confirmation, timesheet management, invoicing and payment, compliance maintenance and renewals — we manage all of it. You receive a single, clear invoice. The clinician arrives prepared and compliant. If anything changes on either side, we are reachable immediately.
📈 NHS Framework compliant: All bookings can be processed through NHS procurement frameworks, with correct documentation for your finance and governance teams.
After each placement, we actively seek your feedback. If a clinician was excellent, we prioritise them for future bookings with you. If something was not right, we address it immediately. Our goal is not a single placement — it is to become your trusted staffing partner for all primary care requirements.
We do not present a candidate to a client until every compliance requirement has been satisfied. No exceptions.
The primary care staffing market is crowded with generalist agencies that treat GP and ANP recruitment as one of twenty verticals. We do not. Primary care is the only sector we work in, and that focus produces measurably better outcomes for both candidates and clients.
From locum GPs to paramedic practitioners — if it is a primary care clinical role, we place it.
