UK Recruitment – Registered Nurses
Hello everyone,
With my background in technical recruitment, I’m well aware of how challenging the current job market is in the UK.
I’ve made the decision to go independent and launch my own agency focused on placing Registered Nurses in specific regions across the UK.
I’d appreciate your insights on a few things:
- What are the best platforms for sourcing candidates with NMC Pins? I’m considering TikTok for this niche.
- Are there any websites where I can purchase Care Home contact databases?
- Which CV library do you recommend as the most effective? (I’m looking at options like Indeed, among others.)
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi there!
It’s great to hear about your new venture into recruiting for Registered Nurses in the UK! Here are some insights that might help you out:
Sourcing Candidates with NMC Pins: While TikTok is gaining popularity for creative recruitment methods, traditional platforms like LinkedIn often yield better results for professional roles. You might also consider niche job boards specifically for healthcare professionals, such as Nursing Times Jobs or HealthJobsUK. Engaging in online nursing communities and forums can also help you connect with potential candidates.
Care Home Contact Databases: There are several companies that offer databases and contact lists for care homes, such as LeadEx or Contact Data. However, make sure to verify the credibility of these sources to ensure the data is up-to-date and complies with GDPR regulations. Networking through industry events can also lead to valuable connections.
Best CV Libraries: In addition to Indeed, other popular CV libraries include Reed, Totaljobs, and CV-Library. Each has its own strengths, so I would recommend trying a few to see which aligns best with your target audience. Additionally, consider looking into specialist nursing job boards that may cater specifically to your niche.
Best of luck with your agency! It’s a noble field, and I hope you find great success. If you need any more assistance, feel free to reach out!
