Our Business

Anglo Healthcare Recruitment is a limited company operating in the Higher education in Health Care, overseas student recruitment, Employment Business and Recruitment agency. We provide Health Care related Training for overseas students through Partner College's. We also introduction services for Permanent staff and act as a neutral vendor and act as a master vendor in the Health and Social Care sectors.

Anglo Healthcare Recruitment is an independent business.

Who we work with

We operate as a "neutral vendor" and collaborate with various businesses worldwide to recruit foreign students interested in studying Health Care subjects in the UK. Our staff directly recruits some of these students or recruited by other businesses. We facilitate these students' higher education at our partner colleges and universities. It is important to note that we do not engage in student recruitment to provide jobs in the UK, nor do our Health Care courses lead to Health Care jobs at a later date.

We operate as a "master vendor", which means that all the hirers we work with and all the work-seekers we provide are known and identified by our staff. Our staff identifies all the permanent or temp-to-permanent workers we supply. We don't supply work-seekers to hiring companies through any intermediaries.

The hiring companies that we work with are located in the United Kingdom. The work-seekers / workers we supply live in the United Kingdom.

Our Processes for Managing Risk

In order to assess the risk of modern slavery, we use the following processes with our suppliers:

• When engaging with suppliers, we ask for evidence of their processes and policies, including commitments around modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, human rights, and whistle-blowing.
• We conduct audits before entering into a commercial relationship with any business where there is the potential for risk. These audited businesses form the basis of our preferred supplier list.
• We review the potential for risk at regular intervals, including the possibility of re-auditing a supplier or conducting spot checks.

After due consideration, we have not identified any significant risks of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking in our supply chain. However, we continue to be alert to the potential for problems.
