Our recruitment services

At Sellick Partnership, we understand the unique challenges faced by the NHS in securing the right talent. Whether you require permanent staff, temporary cover, or fixed-term professionals, our expert recruitment services are tailored to meet your needs.


Permanent recruitment

At Sellick Partnership, we understand the importance of stability and continuity in healthcare settings. Our permanent recruitment services focus on sourcing dedicated and skilled professionals who are committed to long-term success within the NHS and healthcare sector. We work closely with our clients to identify their unique needs, culture, and values, ensuring that the candidates we recommend align perfectly with their requirements. 


Temporary recruitment

In the healthcare landscape, flexibility is key. Our contract recruitment services provide clients with access to a pool of highly qualified professionals who can step in to meet short-term needs or fill gaps in staffing. Whether it’s for specific projects, seasonal demands, or unexpected vacancies, we are here to help. Our team specialises in understanding the intricacies of contract roles, and is committed to finding the right fit.


Fixed-term recruitment

We specialise in providing tailored fixed-term recruitment solutions for NHS and healthcare services. With extensive experience in the healthcare sector, we understand the challenges that our clients are facing and are committed to delivering high-quality candidates who meet your specific needs. Our dedicated team works closely to fill vital roles with a referenced pool of candidates. 

Why work with Sellick Partnership?

We recognise that the NHS and healthcare sector requires a bespoke approach to recruitment, and with over 20 years of experience, we are ideally placed to partner with you in order to address key hurdles such as budget constraints and employee retention. At Sellick Partnership, we offer comprehensive solutions to ensure your staffing requirements are met efficiently and effectively. 

Our tailored approach and expertise enable us to source top talent looking for NHS vacancies, as well as inspiring those who haven’t considered this incredible sector where your contribution really matters. From securing specialists with niche skillsets, to positions that are key to ensuring seamless operations and compliance with stringent regulations, we're equipped to handle it all.

Like many public sector organisations, the NHS faces budget constraints that may limit its ability to offer competitive salaries to professionals looking for non-clinical healthcare jobs. This can make it difficult to attract top talent, especially with other sectors offering what could be considered a more lucrative compensation package. There is an increased need for innovation and creativity to find a balance which attracts this talent. 

We understand that things can happen beyond your control, requiring critical healthcare and NHS roles to be filled with urgency. As a longstanding recruitment partner, we have a wide network of experienced and reliable candidates that we can approach to fill urgent vacancies. 

With a strong pool of skilled and pre-referenced contract professionals, we can fill crucial roles in a matter of days, allowing your team to maintain productivity and focus on delivering results.

We recognise that the NHS is a highly specialised and constantly changing sector. By actively listening and continuously improving our services, we are proud to offer a personalised approach based on creating a true partnership with our clients and candidates.  

We take this responsibility seriously. It can be challenging to find the right talent with the necessary skills for a dynamic sector like the NHS, but we are dedicated to our partnership. Our collaborative approach and enthusiasm for the sector ensure that the right individuals always find the right roles.


Non-clinical healthcare professionals must navigate a complex regulatory environment, that includes healthcare-specific regulations, laws, data protection, patient confidentiality requirements, and accounting standards. Ensuring compliance with these regulations, whilst managing processes adds an additional layer of complexity to recruitment efforts. 

We have an award-winning in-house Compliance Team that is committed to excellence, our rigorous vetting process includes thorough background checks, credential verification, and adherence to NHS guidelines, providing you with peace of mind.

Retaining skilled professionals is as important as hiring them. We support your retention efforts by placing candidates who align with your culture and values. Additionally, we offer insights and strategies for creating a supportive and engaging work environment, promoting long-term employee satisfaction and loyalty.

Our relationship with our clients and candidates goes beyond just filling roles. We offer ongoing support and strategic partnership, helping you to plan for future workforce needs, manage employee retention, and adapt to changing healthcare landscapes. We are dedicated to your long-term success.
