Independent Healthcare

Background to the Role

Berwick’s Independent Healthcare practice is one of the leading healthcare recruitment firms for senior professionals – winning Executive Search Provider of the Year at the 2023 Health Investor Awards. We work with a wide range of healthcare service providers – from diagnostics, to mental health, to allied healthcare – to help appoint outstanding individuals across all senior functions.

Our clients regard us as trusted advisors, offering an efficient and personal service. Primarily, we yield outstanding results when attracting exceptional talent.

All our work is retained – and Berwick Partners is a great place to develop from either a contingent or interim Consultant into a fully retained executive search professional. This role will suit an individual who is not looking to develop large teams, but someone who enjoys client interaction and a consultative approach to recruitment.

At Berwick Partners, we have created a mature and “grown-up” culture, one where you are trusted to deliver without weekly KPIs and sales incentives. We provide our consultants with a huge amount of support to enable them to be as effective as possible. Support comes in the form of:

  • Dedicated (shared) PA
  • In-house Research Team
  • Events Manager
  • Marketing Manager

Positions this Practice has placed in the past include:

  • Kims Hospital, Medical Director
  • Hill Care, CEO
  • Medinet, COO
  • HMT, Executive Director of Nursing 
  • Optima, Head of Quality 
  • Golders Green Nursing, Matron
  • HomeLink, Chief Commercial Officer
  • Alliance Medical, Head of Operations 
  • City & County Healthcare, Director of Complex Care

  • Develop a personal profile, ensuring that you become a recognised and respected recruiter in your specialism
  • Communicate effectively, both verbally and in writing, and interact at the most senior level
  • Produce well-written documents of excellent quality that add value to an assignment

The Candidate

  • We are suited to those individuals who value a collaborative culture, the opportunity to do important work and deliver a quality service
  • Already a recruiter, you will be looking to handle assignments where you add value through consulting with and advising clients as a trusted partner
  • Intellectually capable, confident and a tenacious self-starter, you should be self-managed
  • You will know what it takes to develop your reputation and position, both internally and externally
  • Able to communicate effectively, in writing and verbally
