FOR CANDIDATES

Working in occupational health?

If you're OH-qualified, or a nurse who wants out of shifts and into occupational health, we'll tell you straight what you're worth and which employers genuinely train and progress people. Most of our OH candidates come by recommendation — that only happens when people are looked after.

Common questions

Straight answers — the same ones you'd get on the phone.

FOR CLIENTS

Which occupational health roles do you recruit for?

OH advisors, OH nurses, OH physicians, OH technicians, screening nurses, case managers, occupational therapists, OH paramedics and OH leadership — from a single hire to a full clinical team.

Do you cover permanent, contract and sessional staffing?

All three. Permanent hires are our core work, and we also place contract and sessional OH professionals where you need cover or flexible capacity.

How quickly can you shortlist for an OH vacancy?

For most OH roles we send a first shortlist inside a week, because we work this market every day and already know who is open to moving.

Which parts of the UK do you cover?

All of it — from London to Scotland and everywhere in between, including mobile and multi-site roles. We also support US occupational health hiring.

What does it cost to use NBR?

Our terms of business are agreed up front, before any work starts — no surprises, and no charge to get an honest view on whether your salary and spec are realistic.

How do you vet OH candidates before we see them?

We confirm professional registration and right to work, and every candidate has been spoken to about your specific role before their CV reaches you — no keyword-matched CVs.

Can you recruit a whole OH team or support a new contract win?

Yes — we regularly support providers staffing up for new contracts, from advisors and technicians through to the service manager.

Do you place remote OH staff?

Yes. Remote case management and telephone assessment roles are a growing part of the market and we recruit them nationally.

What happens if a placement doesn't work out?

Replacement terms are set out clearly in our terms of business, and we stay in touch after start day precisely so problems surface early, while they're fixable.

Who will we actually deal with?

A director — the person who takes your brief is the person who works it, start to finish. No handoffs, no account managers.

FOR CANDIDATES

Do I need an OH qualification to move into occupational health?

Not necessarily. Many providers hire NMC-registered nurses into screening or trainee advisor roles and fund the OH qualification once you're in — we know which ones genuinely do.

Does it cost me anything to use NBR?

No — candidates never pay a fee, for anything, ever.

Will you send my CV anywhere without asking?

Never. Your CV only goes to an employer with your explicit agreement, after we've told you who they are.

What OH roles do you place?

Everything from OH technician and screening nurse through advisor, case manager, physician and up to service manager and head of OH.

Are there remote occupational health jobs?

Yes — remote case management and telephone assessment roles come up regularly, alongside clinic-based, mobile and hybrid work.

What should I be earning?

It depends on setting, region and caseload — see our OH salary guide on the blog for typical ranges, or ask us and we'll tell you straight whether you're underpaid for your market.

I'm employed and my search needs to stay quiet. Can you work like that?

Yes — discretion is standard. We never name you to anyone without your say-so.

Do you help with interview preparation?

Yes. Before any interview we brief you properly on the employer, the interviewer and what they actually care about.

Which locations do you recruit in?

Nationwide across the UK, plus remote roles and US opportunities where you have the right to work there.

How do I register with you?

Apply to any live job, or send your CV with a line about what you're after — a named consultant replies, not an auto-response.
