Exploring various job opportunities can be overwhelming, but at Nothing But Recruitment, we are dedicated to helping you find the perfect role and making your journey to your dream career stress-free. There are numerous ways you can work, such as locum positions, permanent roles, contract work, or line of work. Below, we highlight the benefits of each to help you decide which path is right for you.
Locum/Temporary
Locum healthcare professionals temporarily fill gaps within hospitals, practices, or clinics. This role offers flexibility and the chance to work when hospitals are short-staffed or someone is absent.
- Flexibility: You control your shifts, choosing when and where you work.
- Experience and Skills: Working as a locum allows you to interact with new client groups and gain diverse experiences. It also provides opportunities to try new things that might not be available in a permanent role.
- Work-Life Balance: Locums typically enjoy a healthy work-life balance since they are contracted for specific hours and can disconnect from work once their shift ends.
Permanent
A permanent healthcare position offers daily stability with a guaranteed role. Jade Rous, our Team Leader for Permanent Mental Health Doctors, notes, “In a permanent position, you have the chance to make a lasting impact on your patients’ lives and witness their long-term progress.”
- Progression: Permanent roles provide opportunities for career growth and advancement.
- Perks: Enjoy benefits such as annual leave, sick leave, study leave, training allowances, and pension contributions.
- Relationships: Build strong, lasting relationships with your Trust or department.
Contract
Contract positions involve working within a Trust for a set period, offering stability while allowing you to gain varied experiences.
- Consistency: Contracts provide stability and the opportunity to build stronger relationships with colleagues.
- Diverse Experience: Upon completing a contract, you can move to a new division, enhancing your experience and knowledge.
- Perks: Similar benefits to permanent positions, including full-time member perks for the duration of your contract.
