You will also ideally have

• Demonstrable experience of resilience and remaining focused when things don’t go as planned—healthcare recruitment is a particularly difficult industry, but we’re in it together and we’re making a difference every day!
• Confident approach, and sometimes assertive when needed, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment and work reactively
