About us

Work that fits people’s lives

We match people with work that suits their hours, their skills and their plans — and employers with people they can rely on. That is the whole job, and we measure ourselves by it.

What we do

Two sides, one promise

Every placement has two people who need it to work: the person starting the job and the manager who needs them on shift.

For people looking for work

Temporary shifts this week or a permanent career: a consultant who knows the local sites finds the right fit and stays in touch once you start.

Portrait of Helen Marsh

From our founder

“We still pick up the phone.”

When we opened above a café on Park Square in 2009, we made one promise: every call gets answered by someone who knows your name. Seventeen years and 14 branches later, it is still the first thing we teach every new consultant.

Recruitment is easy to automate and hard to do well. The people we place have rent to pay and families to plan around; the managers who hire them have orders to ship and patients to care for. Both deserve a person on the other end of the line.

Thank you for trusting us with that.

How we work

Four habits behind every placement

  1. We meet everyone

    Every candidate has an interview, in a branch or on a video call, before their first shift.

  2. We visit every site

    Consultants walk the floor before they staff it, so they can brief people properly.

  3. We call after day one

    A check-in after the first shift catches problems before they become no-shows.

  4. We pay every Friday

    Weekly pay, holiday pay and payslips in the app, without chasing.
