About us

MedGen is the leading healthcare recruitment agency specialised in placing nurses nationwide. Working with private and public sector hospitals, prisons and private clients, we are experts at managing highly urgent staffing requirements. We provide value by enabling healthcare providers to deliver first-class care and continuity of service.

About the opportunity

Do you enjoy helping others develop their customer service skills and understand the advantages of a team environment and what it takes to thrive in one? Then you may be perfect for one of our team leader jobs. We’re looking for two talented and passionate individuals to join our company and to lead the Acute Booking Team to greater heights. You’ll supervise approximately 10 full-time employees who are in contact with our nurses and clients (both businesses and individuals) via email, phone, live chat and other methods. This is a front-facing department which supports our clients in Acute hospitals, community hospitals and care homes with nurses and HCA’s in their time of needs.

Some background in the healthcare industry would be nice, but what’s more important for us right now is that you understand what makes team members tick and what motivates them to grow and excel. We’d love to hear from candidates who have reduced employee turnover at previous or current companies.
