A UK mental health and wellbeing care recruitment firm. Direct-hire only. Careful screening, compliant paperwork, one named consultant per client.
Carers In Mind places permanent mental health and wellbeing care professionals into UK providers across ten services: mental health support workers, bipolar care, depression and anxiety support, crisis intervention, memory care, dementia companions, psychiatric nursing assistants, CAMHS support, and wellbeing coaches.
The firm was built on a simple principle. Mental health and wellbeing care is intimate work. The cost of getting a hire wrong is paid by the service user. We slow down at the front of every search to make sure we do not pay that cost.
Every search starts with a half-hour conversation with the service lead. We talk about the service user profile, the team, the case load, and what would make this hire stick. From there we agree a shortlist criteria document, a target window for first introductions, and a written timeline.
Within five working days you receive a written market read with your first candidates. Each candidate has had a real conversation with us, not a five-minute availability check. We listen to how they talk about previous service users.
DBS, right-to-work, professional references, and statutory training records are documented in writing before any candidate is introduced. That is the floor. The work the recruiter does is what sits on top of that floor.
Permanent placements demand a different kind of search than agency shift cover. Continuity matters in mental health care. The relationship between a worker and a service user takes weeks to build and seconds to break. Direct-hire is the work that protects that continuity.
The consultant who takes your brief is the consultant who calls you with offer outcomes. Same person on every call. Compassion is consistent only when accountability is.
Carers In Mind works across England, Scotland, and Wales. Direct-hire searches into NHS providers, CCG-aligned services, private mental-health providers, supported-living, and homecare.
