At RIG Healthcare we are very proud of our reputation and the relationships that we build with our candidates. Please find comments from some of our candidates below:
I learnt about RIG Healthcare more than 2 years ago when I began the process of looking for work in the UK. I heard about RIG from a friend of mine who was also happy with the company when she locumed in London. Coming from Australia, the process of finding work and being set up with agencies was all new, and Richard made the process much easier. In the time since I first contacted RIG, Richard (and his colleagues) have been nothing but professional and friendly. All emails and phone calls were always responded to efficiently and professionally. When I was after new positions, or advice on work issues, Richard and his colleagues actually listened to what I was wanting and worked quickly for advice and help.
Richard and his colleagues often took the time over the last 2+ years to just check in on my situation to see if they could help more.
RIG also has a great referral system, and with the many referrals I made to Richard/RIG, they were all with the honest intention of having them represented by a good agent/agency (the referral bonuses were also a welcomed bonus and were dealt with quickly).
I would recommend RIG to locums!
Gemma, Occupational Therapist
Since first searching for a new role in the sometimes dubious locum agency market I have been delighted with the support provided by Emma. She has always provided a professional service, and unlike a number of other representatives, familiarised herself with the information that I provided from the outset. Which of course means that the services she provides, and roles that are offered are truly personalised and reflect the positions I am looking for. I have been so impressed by her tireless ability to respond to my queries, and to help me to find the perfect role, even when I already have a placement. For me this ability to personalise services, & still answer my call when the commission is steadily rolling in, is essential. I feel that Emma is a real advocate for me and for that reason I wouldn't want another agent to represent me.
Tracey, Speech and Language Therapist
"D'Arcy delivers a truly personal service and is always on hand for advice. He ensures I am fully aware of any processes and new placements from the very beginning with a follow up process. D'Arcy is a really responsive consultant who aims to tailor my placements in areas to enhance and utilise my current skill set which is very important. Always just a phone call away, it's really effortless process. Supportive and with a smile Darcy always goes a step beyond to ensure I am completely satisfied and fully informed."
Sarah, Radiographer
"RIG are professional, helpful and very organised. They assisted me to become compliant with their registration very quickly and even got me a job within a week of joining! I would recommend them of you are looking to take that step into the hospital sector."
Shah, Hospital Pharmacist
"I have only recently joined RIG Healthcare and have an excellent experience to date. Never having locumed before, I was daunted by all the paperwork requirements but my consultants have made the process very easy and straightforward. I have been particularly impressed by the excellent communication as the team update me regularly at each step, are easily contactable and are happy to answer all my queries. RIG found me a great job in a great location within a week of signing up so I am very pleased with the efficient service they provide and I am looking forward to continuing to work with the team."
Edel, Physiotherapist
"I am really happy working with RIG Healthcare Agency. Very professional and efficiently run. My agent is always available at the end of the phone at any time and always happy to answer any queries and find me great jobs in great locations. The accounts department is run very well too. I am always paid correctly and on time."
Lauren, Sonographer
"I am a community physiotherapist with Sutton and Merton community services. Each time I have spoken with Richard he has always been very attentive and approachable. He listens carefully to the job specifications of staff required for my service. He has a very clear and cheerful style of communication and is always very attentive and helpful. He liaises with me as well as prospective applicants in order to match the right member of staff for our service. Richard is honest and clear about the skills of staff that he is recommending. He always answers and follows through requests made by telephone or email.
He has been very effective in locating appropriate locum staff for our service."
Oshowo, Physiotherapist
"I am a long term locum of RIG Healthcare, in that time they have never failed to get me a new client, they are fast and efficient and will do their utmost to secure an excellent rate. They always try to get the most suitable and convenient placement and when there are problems they are understanding and on your side. I have since recommended RIG to other locums and will continue to do so. Thanks RIG!"
Michelle, Pharmacy Technician
"RIG have been excellent! Many thanks for all your help in getting me a position within a highly rated health service provider. I have been hugely impressed with Rigs service, support and regular follow ups during my lengthy locum position. As a recent graduate in Occupational Therapy, I was becoming quite anxious as the jobs market was becoming very competitive, with limited permanent vacancies, I thought of the opportunity of becoming a Locum OT. I have not looked back since. RIG have a many benefits such as the opportunity of two payroll dates in a week! Handy when you forget to complete your time sheet! They have also demonstrated loyalty and allowed me to complete the relevant certificates in order to become compliant, and fit for practice, free of charge! I would happily recommend RIG to anyone else looking for a job in healthcare!"
Anita, Occupational Therapist
"I have two contacts at RIG, Emma and Franky, and they really jump through hoops for me. I can phone them, text or email, and they always get back to me straight away, they have sorted out all those little annoying problems for me that always occur with a new contract.
"Not only do they know their stuff, they are genuinely nice people and we have a laugh! That's really important to me. I feel like we are on the same team as opposed to an employee/employer relationship. They work hard for me, I can’t rate them highly enough!"
James, Pharmacy Technician
"I have been working with RIG healthcare for 6 months and have found the candidate advisors to be dedicated, person centred, easily contactable and always professional. My interests and needs are always fully understood and considered when finding placements and I consistently feel supported through regular contact from my candidate advisor."
