How We Find You The Perfect Locum

We've brought the best locum agencies together in one place, competing to find you the best locum shifts, so you can find your perfect locum quickly and easily.

How it works

How we find you
the perfect locum

Step 1

Tell us what you want

Forget emailing hospital banks and agencies and not hearing back. We bring them together online and ask them to pitch you work. We put the power back in your hands.

What do I put on my profile?

Yes, we only include your first name and you don't share your full name, GMC number or any contact details.

Who sees my profile?

Only recruiters from agencies that are vetted and approved by Messly can see your profile, so you don't need to worry about your colleagues or current hospital coming across it.

Is it anonymous?

Yes, we only include your first name and you don't share your full name, GMC number or any contact details.

Step 2

Receive locum offers from agencies

Agencies contact you through Messly, offering specific locum jobs upfront which are tailored to your locum wishlist. You manage all your conversation within Messly, and don't share your personal details until you're sure that you want to go ahead. You can turn off your Messly profile any time, and nobody can contact you.

Who are the locum agencies?

We only work with the best-rated and trusted agencies. We select them based on doctor feedback, and ensure they provide a great service

Can I see jobs upfront?

Yes, agencies have to mention specific vacancies they have them they message you. No more vague promises of work that don't materalise!

How long does it take to get locum offers?

Most doctors will get multiple offers on the day they make their profile.

Can you help me find other jobs apart from locums?
