Rapid response to increasing demand for permanent and locum psychologists
This application of technology means that our clients can circulate their most urgent vacancies throughout the UK faster than those relying on traditional advertising campaigns. As a result, we measurably fill permanent role faster than our competitors. In addition to our use of the latest technology, we maintain an advertising spend in excess of £90,000, reaching a wider audience of professionals. This has the added benefit of finding experts looking for locum/interim or temporary roles and those available for adhoc assignments and reports.

Matching skills and experience in any discipline requires expert knowledge, an enquiring mind and the application of proven selection models. Our specialist recruiters use competency based techniques to help identify strenghts and weakensses (even within their niche disciplines) resulting in a symbiotic selection process where candidate and client benefit. Our position, as the UK's leading supplier is underpinned by our umbrella company status with the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and Quality accreidtations. In addition, we have developed a range of continuous vetting procedures that validate the identity of our applicants, confirm the authenticity of their qualifications, and substantiate the currency of their skills. Nothing is accepted at face value and contiguous records are maintained. To give you further peace of mind, all our locum personnel carry registered photo-identity cards |
Don't leave an empty chair, use our locum/temporary psychology service
With the evolving change to locum worker status within the United Kingdom, we engage our locum staff under a contract for services that is constantly updated. This means you can fill your empty chairs with confidence today.
This means that whilst our locum staff are managed by you, there is never a risk that you migth end up employing the locum worker directly, thus ensuring that our clients enjoy the maximum benefits without the risk and costs.
As an aid to retention, the majority of our locum workers are paid in excess of their spinal point rating. However, after periods of work as a locum, some of our workers seek permanent roles. We actively encourage the transfer of these resources to employing organisations without a fee. These arrangements ensure that those who wish to transfer to an employer may do so without delay.
CRB checks and BPS membership
| We undertake Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) both for our own psychologists and those employed by our clients. Our on-line CRB service means that checks can be carried out from around the UK by anyone with access to a scanner and the internet. Checks can be undertaken in as little as one week! We provide enhanced level checks for all locum/temporary workers looking for Educational Psychologists roles. Overseas workers are required to provide comparable evidence at the time of registering. CRB checking is undertaken FREE of charge, we do not charge locum/temporary staff for CRB checks. | We support the regulation, membership and ethical structures of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and staff looking for locum work must be registered with the BPS before we are able to introduce you to clients. Registration with the BPS is simple, provided you have the qualifications and ethical standards required. Details are available from the BPS web site. This does not mean we can not provide you with detailed assistance but it does mean we can not help you secure a permanent or locum role until your registration is complete. |
