Fitness & Health Recruitment

Across The UK

From London to Edinburgh and everywhere in between, we place physical therapists, trainers, sales staff and managers across the country

The UK fitness and wellness sector has grown fast, and so has the competition for good people.

From boutique studios to national gym chains, from private physiotherapy clinics to multi-disciplinary rehab centres, businesses across the UK are all chasing the same small pool of genuinely strong candidates.

We understand UK salary benchmarks, notice periods, HCPC registration requirements for physical therapists, and what actually motivates the best people in this industry to move.

That knowledge means faster, more accurate hires, and fewer wasted interviews.

Our Process

Step 1

Briefing and alignment.

We learn everything we need to about the role, the team, and the business.

This is the foundation.

We want to know about your culture, what is expected, how you support staff - all of it.

Step 2

Targeted search.

We go beyond job boards.

We use our networks.

We research and use market mapping to find candidates who match your brief, including the passive candidates who aren't actively looking.

Step 3

Screening and assessment.

Every candidate we present has been through a thorough process.

We assess skills, relevant qualifications, cultural fit, motivation, and career trajectory.

We don't just tick boxes.

Step 4

Presentation and support.

You receive a shortlist with full context on each candidate.

We then support you through interviews, offer negotiation, and onboarding.

We're here for the full cycle

Step 5

Post-placement follow-up.

We check in with both you and the candidate after placement.

We don't place and ghost you.

Our reputation depends on hires that last, not just hires that happen.

Want to work with us?

Whether you're an employer or a candidate, the first step is a conversation.
