Alpha Talent

HEALTHCARE & SOCIAL CARE RECRUITMENT

Great care starts with the right team.

Alpha Talent works alongside healthcare and social care providers across the UK to find dependable, permanent
professionals who actually fit the role.

More than filling a vacancy.

Care recruitment is about more than ticking boxes.

We place everyone from healthcare assistants and support workers through to registered managers, clinical leads and senior operational staff, always looking beyond a CV to find people whose expertise and values go well with your service.

Care recruitment isn’t just about ticking boxes. Skills are important, but so is reliability, communication, location, and whether someone will genuinely stay and grow with your team.

Need to Fill a Care Vacancy?

Describe the role. We’ll find the person.

Hiring in care is not easy right now, and finding someone who fits your service takes more than just posting a job ad. Whether you manage a care home, a domiciliary agency, a supported living service, or a private skilled healthcare provider, Alpha Talent designs every search around your actual needs.

We put in time upfront to understand your organisation and the role before we even approach a single candidate.

We Go Beyond Job Ads

Many of the best care professionals aren’t
browsing job boards. We reach them anyway.

 We don’t rely on job ads alone. We combine sector- specific candidate networks, our recruitment databases, targeted advertising, direct sourcing and outreach, industry contacts and passive candidate approaches to reach relevant people for each vacancy.

We search actively, rather than waiting for applications
to come in.

Every Candidate Is Properly Assessed

Fewer irrelevant CVs. Better hiring decisions.

Before introducing a candidate, we look at their relevant sector experience, employment history, management or clinical background, qualifications where required, notice period and availability, salary expectations, location and travel, and their motivation for moving.

You receive a focused shortlist, not a stack of
CVs.

Safeguarding Comes First

The wellbeing of service users always comes
before speed of hire.

We agree with employers what pre-employment checks are required for each vacancy. Where DBS, references or right to work checks are needed, responsibilities are agreed clearly between Alpha Talent and the employer before an offer is made.

Clear responsibilities. Safer recruitment. Better hiring
decisions.
