What we do

Reliable workforce support, done properly.

We supply reliable locum and permanent clinicians where services need them most.

That includes short-term cover, long-term placements and wider workforce solutions that protect service continuity. We work closely with hiring managers to understand real pressures on the ground, then deliver clinicians who are ready to contribute from day one.

For candidates, that means fair pay, clarity and roles that genuinely fit.
For clients, it means dependable compliance, responsive delivery and fewer gaps to manage.

How we work

We work closely with NHS trusts, primary care services and private providers across the UK to deliver safe, compliant workforce solutions.

Our consultants take time to understand each service, the pressures on the ground and what “good” actually looks like. That allows us to place clinicians who are ready to contribute from day one, not just fill a gap.

We support short-term cover, long-term placements and wider workforce solutions, always focused on continuity, compliance and pace.

We believe good recruitment starts with fairness

Equality, diversity and inclusion are part of how we work every day, from recruitment through to onboarding and ongoing support. Our processes are designed to be clear, consistent and fair, so clinicians are assessed on what they bring to the role, not where they come from.

We keep our approach practical, transparent and under constant review.

In practice, this means:

  • Structured, fair recruitment processes

  • Consistent onboarding and compliance support

  • Transparent pay and equal access to roles

  • Clear, inclusive job descriptions

Hunter Gatherer AHP is about more than just what we do.

It’s about how we do it, about who we are, and about who we strive to be. These are the values that our people live by every day:

 

Professionalism

We provide the very best recruitment solution in the entire healthcare market by always doing what we say we will, and living by our company vision and values.

Integrity

If we say we will do something, we mean it, and we do it. And we will always provide an honest, unbiased, expert opinion to all our candidates and clients, founded on a deep understanding of market conditions, healthcare professions and the recruitment business.

Ambition

We aim to be the home of Allied Health Professionals recruitment. And we will get there by fuelling and fulfilling the ambitions of all our teams.

Expertise

We apply our experience and intelligence to understanding the specific, individual needs of our candidates and clients. Providing tailored, informed solutions in every case.

Partnership

When we work together, we succeed together. That means the way our teams collaborate in harmony with a common purpose. And the way we genuinely work in partnership with our clients and candidates to make sure they receive only the finest service.

Work Ethic

We are relentless in our efforts to provide a superior healthcare recruitment service.

Our Earth

At Hunter Gatherer AHP, we believe that reducing carbon emissions is about more than just offsetting—it’s about actively reducing our own environmental impact. We engage our team and suppliers in this mission, working collaboratively to implement sustainable practices. We’re on a carbon accounting journey, tracking our emissions and decarbonising purchases, all as part of a concrete plan towards net zero. Our Carbon Reduction Plan outlines our commitment to long-term, meaningful change, ensuring a greener future.

Giving back

We believe recruitment has a wider responsibility.

Alongside our work in healthcare, we support community and charitable initiatives that align with our values. This includes fundraising, volunteering and long-term partnerships with organisations making a meaningful difference.

Our team is encouraged to give time as well as support causes that matter to them, helping us contribute beyond the roles we fill.
