For years, Locums Today has proudly supported healthcare providers across the UK with dependable, fully compliant staffing solutions. But as the world around us changes and workforce demands evolve  so must we.

Today, we’re excited to share the story behind our growth: the expansion of Locums Today beyond healthcare into education. This isn’t just about offering more services, it’s about rising to meet the needs of the communities we serve.

Why the Expansion?

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed more than just gaps in healthcare; it highlighted a critical need for flexible, high-quality professionals across multiple sectors. Educational institutions have faced growing staffing challenges  and many turned to trusted healthcare agencies for help.

We saw an opportunity to apply our expertise in recruitment, compliance, and workforce support to other essential services where people matter most.

Welcome, Education Division

Our new Education Division is now live  connecting schools, academies, nurseries, and other learning environments with qualified teaching and support staff. From teachers and teaching assistants to SEN specialists, nursery practitioners, and admin staff, we’re here to ensure that education doesn’t get interrupted due to staff shortages.

Diversified, But Still Personal
Even as we expand, we remain committed to what has always set us apart:

• A personal, account-managed approach
• Fast, reliable response to urgent staffing needs
• Strict adherence to compliance and safeguarding standards

Whether we’re supporting a hospital or a school, the goal is the same  to help people deliver their best work by providing the right professionals at the right time.

The Vision Going Forward

Locums Today is evolving into a multi-sector workforce partner flexible, responsive, and built for the real world. Healthcare will always be at our core, but education, social care, and community services are equally vital to society’s well being.

We’re here to support them all with quality, speed, and a human touch.

Let’s grow together.
If you’re an organisation looking for staff or a professional looking for your next role, Locums Today is here to help  now in more ways than ever.
