How it works

Like booking a ride — for a qualified locum.

The first verified practitioner to accept, and be accepted by the facility, gets the shift. The terms are recorded as a digital contract between the two.

01

Register and verify

ID check and practising certificate confirmed with your council.

02

Post availability

Practitioners mark their free slots — a morning, a weekend, a full week.

03

Post a shift

Facilities set the role, date, hours, location and offered rate.

04

Accept and agree

Matching practitioners are notified; agree the hourly fee in-app.

05

Work and rate

A digital contract records the terms. Both sides rate each other.

Book a locum for 7 days, extend for another 7, then bring them on permanently once you're sure they fit your team and your customers.

Who it's for

Two sides, one trusted marketplace.

Turn free hours into paid shifts.

Not every practitioner works a full week. Post the hours you're free and pick up shifts that fit around your main job.

Verification

We check the licence, not just the degree.

A current practising certificate proves someone is registered and allowed to practise today. We confirm it with the relevant professional council before a profile can take a shift.

Identity KYC

National ID, selfie match, phone number and address.

Practising certificate

Registration number checked against the council register.

Annual re-check

Profiles pause automatically when a certificate expires, until it's renewed.

Facility checks

Business registration and, for pharmacies, the premises licence.
