The solutions we provide

I want to develop, but I don’t want to feel out of my depth.

  • Tailored induction at your own pace.
  • Shadowing before independent initials.
  • A senior/buddy for real-time clinical questions.
  • Weekly 1:1 supervision with a clinically aligned team leader.
  • Monthly clinical case reviews and services.

  • Daily team interaction on Microsoft Teams.
  • Regular in-person MDT catch-ups and socials.
  • Shared admin day across your discipline.

I want to choose my caseload.

  • You experience.
  • Your clinical interests.
  • What you want to learn next (With full structured support plan).

Community sounds great, but I’m worried about travel?

  • We’ll never ask you to do 60 minute one-way trips to whoop-whoop.
  • Your travel radius is 30-45 minutes from your home and then your clients are clustered locally.
  • Travel counts toward your targets.

I want to grow AND have work-life balance.

  • No excessive back-to-back days.
  • No over-time.
  • No surprise last-minute bookings.
  • Flexibility to structure your week around your life.
  • A full admin day built in for reports, meetings, and session planning.
  • Time for a couple of deep breaths, a snack and car karaoke between sessions.

I’m feeling burnt out doing 6+ clients a day in clinic.

  • We value your work: travel, reports, calls, emails, session planning all count towards your billables.
  • Exceed your billable targets and you earn a percentage of your total revenue.
  • On average, see 4 clients a day with one day dedicated to admin to maintain the right balance.

Can I have flexibility while I’m still growing?

Yes. We trust you, even early in your career.

  • Choose your days and hours.
  • Control your diary.
  • Take leave anytime throughout the year.
