Global Network
We have built our reputation on the "permanent-only" model because we believe stability is the ultimate credential. Our industry standing is measured by the retention rates of the teams we build. For 20 years, we have been the silent partner behind some of the most stable surgical departments in ANZ, proving that a specialized focus leads to superior clinical and financial outcomes for our hospital partners.
Permanent Only
Our commitment to excellence is backed by a rigorous adherence to perioperative standards and industry best practices. We maintain active professional standing within the recruitment and healthcare communities, ensuring every permanent placement meets the highest clinical benchmarks. By staying aligned with current surgical innovations and governance, we provide a level of vetting that generalist agencies simply cannot replicate.
20 Years
Carejobz was founded on two decades of clinical and recruitment expertise across the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. This isn't just experience; it is a deep, historical understanding of how theatre cultures evolve. We have navigated the complexities of international nursing registrations and trans-Tasman relocations since 2006, ensuring that the heritage of our network becomes the strength of your surgical team.
