Private Healthcare Jobs and Recruitment for Hospitals, Clinics and Care Providers
Private healthcare jobs are some of the most rewarding roles in the UK, and some of the hardest to fill. Bernoullis recruits healthcare assistants, administrators, medical secretaries, allied health professionals, health tech specialists and clinical leaders for private hospitals, clinics and care providers. We check registration, references and right to work before you meet anyone, then present the two or three people who genuinely fit.
Why Choose Bernoullis for Private Healthcare Jobs and Hiring?
Patients notice when a team is short. A missing healthcare assistant, a medical secretary who leaves without notice or a manager who never settles can slow clinics, lengthen waits and put pressure on everyone else. We check every candidate carefully before you meet them, so the private healthcare jobs you advertise are filled by people who are safe, ready and likely to stay.
Recruitment Built Around Patient Safety
We start with the checks that protect patients: professional registration, right to work, references and the right level of DBS. Only then do we look at experience and fit, so the people you interview are cleared to start.
Two or Three Strong Candidates, Not a Pile of CVs
We speak to every candidate about the role, the shifts and the setting before we put them forward. You get a short list of people who want the job and match it, which saves your managers hours of screening.

Jobs in Health and Social Care: Why Good People Are Hard to Find
Healthcare employers are competing for the same people. The latest NHS vacancy statistics show 100,326 vacancies in England at 30 June 2026, a rate of 6.7%. That is lower than a year earlier, but it still includes 23,046 registered nursing posts.
Social care faces the same pressure. Skills for Care reported 111,000 vacant posts in adult social care in 2024/25, a 7% vacancy rate, and projects that around 470,000 more posts will be needed by 2040 (Care Management Matters).
That means more jobs in health and social care than there are experienced people to fill them. Private providers must offer clear roles, fair pay and real support to stand out. We help by reaching people who are not scrolling job boards and explaining your role honestly, so they can decide quickly. For job seekers, that means private healthcare jobs and health and social care careers that match your skills, your registration and how far you want to travel.

Why Healthcare Jobs Are So Hard to Fill
Official workforce figures show thousands of open posts across the NHS and adult social care. These are not our figures: they come from NHS England and Skills for Care.
Vacancy rates by staff group
NHS rates are at June 2026 and have fallen from 7.1% a year earlier. The social care rate is for 2024/25.

Permanent, Contract and Temporary Healthcare Recruitment
Healthcare services change with demand. We fill permanent roles, fixed-term contracts and short-term cover, so your service stays safe through every season. Most private hospital jobs we fill are permanent, while clinics often add contract cover for busy periods.
Permanent hires
Healthcare assistants, administrators, therapists and managers who will grow with your service. We check registration, references and long-term goals first.
Fixed-term contracts
Contract staff for new services, project work, system launches and waiting list initiatives.
Temporary cover
Short-term cover for sickness, parental leave and busy periods, once all checks are complete.
How to Hire for Healthcare Jobs: A Practical Guide
Start with the setting, not just the job title. A healthcare assistant on a busy surgical ward needs different experience from one in a day clinic or care home. Write down the patients, the shifts, the team and the systems you use.
Next, confirm what the role legally needs. Registered roles need a live NMC, HCPC or GMC registration, and patient-facing roles need the right level of DBS check. Being clear stops good people being screened out for the wrong reason.
Then think about the whole package. Healthcare staff compare pay, shift patterns, travel, training and pension. A clear offer with realistic hours will win more candidates than a vague advert, especially for private healthcare jobs where candidates often have several offers.
Finally, move quickly. Strong candidates often accept within days, so keep interviews short and give feedback fast. Start the checks early, because DBS and references can take time.
What we assess
- Live professional registration where required
- DBS level and right to work
- Experience in similar settings and patient groups
- Mandatory training and Care Certificate
- Communication, compassion and reliability
- References from recent managers

Do you recruit for private hospital jobs?
Yes. Private hospital jobs are a large part of our healthcare work, from ward support and admin to theatre, outpatient and management roles. We also recruit for clinics, diagnostics providers and community services.
Can I find jobs in health and social care without experience?
Yes. Many jobs in health and social care, such as healthcare assistant and support worker roles, welcome new starters. Employers usually train you towards the Care Certificate, and good communication and reliability matter more than past experience.
Do you check registration with the NMC, HCPC and GMC?
Yes. For registered roles we check the candidate on the relevant public register before you see a CV. We also confirm right to work, references and the DBS level the role needs.
Do you recruit for the NHS?
NHS trusts advertise their own posts on NHS Jobs, and our Job Matcher includes those listings. We recruit mainly for private and independent providers, and for companies that support NHS services.
How much does healthcare recruitment cost?
You can pay per placement, a fixed fee or a monthly subscription. See our pricing page for current options. Job seekers never pay us to be put forward for a role, and every plan includes our 60-day guarantee.
How quickly can you fill healthcare jobs?
Support and admin roles can often be filled within a couple of weeks. Registered and senior roles usually take longer, because the best candidates have notice periods and need their checks completed before they start.
Are jobs in private healthcare better paid than the NHS?
It depends on the role and the employer. Some jobs in private healthcare pay more or offer extra benefits, while the NHS offers national pay bands, a strong pension and set progression. We explain the full package before you apply.
What makes Bernoullis different from other healthcare recruitment agencies?
We recruit on evidence, not keywords. We check registration, references and right to work first, then send two or three strong candidates rather than a pile of CVs.
