We connect Practice Nurses with GP surgeries and PCNs across the UK — locum shifts and salaried positions. Dedicated consultant, weekly pay, and full compliance support from day one.
A Practice Nurse (PN) is a registered nurse working within a GP surgery or primary care setting, delivering a wide range of clinical services directly to patients. Practice Nurses are one of the most versatile clinical roles in primary care — managing long-term conditions, running chronic disease clinics, delivering immunisations, and contributing directly to QOF targets.
With increasing demand on GP services and the expansion of PCN-based care, experienced Practice Nurses are in high demand across the UK — with both regular locum opportunities and permanent positions available.
Browse our latest Practice Nurse opportunities across the UK. New roles added daily — register to hear about positions matching your location and availability.
We don't dabble in hospital or social care. 100% of our focus is primary care — which means better PN placements, faster.
Our consultants understand QOF targets, chronic disease clinics, GP surgery workflows, and PCN structures. No generalists — we know the Practice Nurse role inside out.
NMC registration checks, enhanced DBS, indemnity insurance, and right-to-work documentation — all handled by our compliance team before you're presented to any client.
We support ongoing CPD, practice-based training, and specialism development — from immunisations and chronic disease management to leadership and ANP progression.
Your dedicated consultant proactively fills your schedule — regular sessions at practices you know, managed around your availability. Stay as busy as you want to be.
Whether you're on a single session or an extended block booking, we handle scheduling, compliance, and admin — so you can focus on patient care every week.
We operate as a compliant supplier within NHS procurement frameworks — giving more GP practices and PCNs the ability to book through us directly and quickly.
Our registration process is quick, straightforward, and designed around your schedule.
Fill in your details, upload your CV, and tell us the types of Practice Nurse roles you're looking for — locum, salaried, or both — and your preferred locations and hours.
We verify your NMC registration, DBS, and indemnity — then match you to suitable roles based on your clinical experience, location preferences, and availability.
Confirm your placement and we handle everything else — timesheets, weekly payroll, and a consultant who proactively manages your diary and keeps your sessions filled.
"SHR found me a regular locum position at a surgery near me within a week of registering. My consultant manages all my bookings and the weekly pay is exactly what I needed moving from salaried to locum."
"I've been a locum Practice Nurse for three years and SHR are by far the best agency I've worked with. They understand the role properly and always find me sessions that match my clinical background."
"The compliance process was smooth and quick. I was placed in a salaried PN role within three weeks of registering — my consultant really listened to what I was looking for and found a brilliant fit."
