We are a Pharmacy and Optometry Locum agency that specialises in providing Locum Pharmacists and Locum Optometrists
As a locum agency the heart of our company lies in the relationships we build with our Locums and Clients.
The excellent reputation we have garnered over the years has been through our dedication to providing outstanding customer service in every aspect of what we do in a friendly and professional manner.
As a pharmacy locum agency, we have over 20 years experience, while some things have got more complicated lately we are still confident on filling as many locum pharmacist shifts as possible.
We are dedicated to helping locum pharmacists and the practices they will do their locum pharmacist shifts in match up perfectly. If a locum pharmacist and a practice aren’t the right match then it’s not good for anyone!
We also cater to locum pharmacists and locum optometrists that want to travel to the UK (admittedly not for the last year and a half), but pre pandemic we would help pharmacy locum based in other countries to do locum work UK.
If you are wondering how to be a locum pharmacist, we have a helpful guide on our website. But briefly, once you are added to the GPHC register, you will need to apply for your indemnity insurance, then your enhanced DBS (which we can help with)
Once we have received them, we will need two clinical references. Then you’re ready to speak to the consultant in charge of your area and ready to start pharmacy locum work.
We are also a leading locum optometrist agency, specialising in helping locum optometrists the perfect optometry locum work.
Things have been particularly sparse this year for locum optometrists, things got tough. The locum optometrist hourly rate took a hit, but we are happy to announce the rates have started to go back to something more viable.
If you are looking to start work as a locum optometrist then we will need, your GOC, OPL, Indemnity insurance and of course two references!
