What Can We Offer You?

In addition to finding our candidates both Locum and permanent jobs within the NHS, we also have a number of interesting and varied roles within the private sector. As the Department of Health moves towards it's target of outsourcing 15% of all procedures, the need for Doctors within the private sector will continue to grow, with Medacs Healthcare at the forefront.

Our specialist Managed Healthcare businesses also provide opportunities for Doctors, holding contracts the length and breadth of the country from the Highlands of Scotland to the tip of Devon and Cornwall, providing Forensic Medical Examiners to Police Constabularies. They also hold the contract for the provision of General Practitioners to 15 prisons in Scotland.

Perhaps you are looking for a complete lifestyle change. Through our Australasia business we have various opportunities available in New Zealand, Australia and the United Arab Emirates. Through an extensive network of contracts with Health Boards and the private sector throughout these countries, we can offer both permanent and temporary jobs. All our consultants have extensive knowledge of travelling and working overseas and can offer you helpful advice about working in a foreign country, providing assistance on work permits, accommodation, bank accounts etc.
