The majority of our candidates are Polish, but we do have candidates from many other EU member countries, and we are extremely interested in receiving applications from any fully-qualified specialists (CCST or equivalent) and specialty doctors (old staff grade), who are interested in working in the UK, Denmark, Greenland or the Faroe Islands.

We have a good success rate in the recruitment and retention of suitable applicants, partly because we have contacts with large numbers of potential applicants, and partly because we put extra effort into working in close collaboration with our clients’ clinical departments and medical staffing personnel.

We specialise in chronic "hard-to-fill" vacancies where our clients have not been able to find appointable applicants. Medical staffing costs are extremely high, and we aim to ease this burden by enabling hospitals to make substantial savings by replacing their long-term locums with doctors recruited into permanent posts. 

For our clients we offer a personal, tailor-made service that best enables us to identify and satisfy their specific recruitment requirements.

"As Medical Director for Sygehus Thy-Mors, I have been involved with Christopher Hawgood since 2001, and together we have recruited 14 Polish medical specialists in various specialties. We have been completely satisfied with CH and we shall continue to use them in the future."

Dr. Ib Søgaard, Medical Director, Sygehus Thy-Mors, Denmark. 

For our candidates we provide full support & advice along each step of the recruitment process. This could be anything from how to fill out a CV, training in interview techniques, how to obtain a medical/dental licence, making travel arrangements, etc, to a member of Christopher Hawgood's team accompanying our candidates to interviews & visits, to finding schools for the children or a job for the spouse or partner. We do not ask for any payment, and we do not accept any payment from candidates.

"Christopher Hawgood has been very supportive and provided me with a lot of help and advice throughout the whole recruitment process, even after I started my new job. They helped to find a house, put me in touch with other Polish doctors in the area, and arranged a clinical attachment for my husband at a local hospital"

Dr. Anna Kucharska, Consultant Psychiatrist,
Newcastle, North Tyneside and Northumberland NHS Trust.

We are not a locum agency; we always recruit doctors who will be employed directly by our clients, and who will stay on long-term contracts. We have developed a pragmatic approach to medical recruitment which increases the rate of successful appointments.
