Locum work on your terms

Making locum work easier

More flexibility, less admin and a small team who know you. We’ll help you find locum work that fits your life, then take care of the details.

Doctors choose locum work for more time freedom, less workplace politics, the ability to travel, explore different parts of New Zealand, experience different health services, or simply a better fit for their lifestyle.

Whatever your reason, we start by asking what matters to you, not just which dates you’re free.

Specialist recruiters who know the services

Our recruiters specialise in the areas they work in and know the services, teams and different clinical settings across New Zealand. That knowledge comes from years of working with the same healthcare providers, visiting services and building relationships.

It means we most often work from the doctor first. Once we understand what you’re looking for, we identify the service, district and placement most likely to suit.
