Mental Health

Confronting challenges, unlocking talent

The independent mental health providers receive £1.964bn a year for treating NHS patients. They have gained a dominant role as the NHS has reduced its own stock of mental health beds despite rising demand for residential psychiatric care.

With a deep understanding of the unique challenges and requirements within the mental health field, we are committed to finding the best talent for various positions.
