Vision
Our ultimate goal is to become more focused on the financial results versus
quality of output. A more strategic focus on building the headhunting function
within the department is of paramount importance, and there is huge scope for
building an in-house self-financing recruitment agency, which primarily services NGHA but also outside vendors. If this was correctly established with
experienced headhunting personnel, we could easily cover the costs of all recruitment activity for NGHA with projected profits also anticipated. At a later
point, I would envisage this in-house agency diversifying into sectors outside
the medical arena, to ensure a more balanced portfolio of clients covering the
recruitment of the following areas: Financial, Technical, Information Technology, Sales & Customer Services.
Mission
Our recruitment philosophy is to provide a high quality of service to each
NGHA facility, by sourcing the best applicants whilst keeping in line with the
overall strategy of the organization. Our aim is to independently source the best
possible applicants at the lowest rates of pay, within a reasonable timescale,
without compromising our standards or disrupting the salary structures within
the respective departments.
