Finding your next role with FT Recruitment in 2026

Staffing agency GlobalUnited Kingdom ft-recruit.co.uk

FT Recruitment is a UK-based staffing agency specializing in the Business Services and Healthcare sectors. We help candidates navigate complex career transitions by matching professional skills with specific employer needs. The most important thing to know is that we act as a bridge, providing access to unadvertised roles within our established client networks.

Who pays FT Recruitment

Paid by the employer, not by you.

FT Recruitment earns a fee from the company that hires you, usually a share of your first-year salary or a margin on your contract rate. Their client is that company.

What that means for you

Expect roles that fit their open vacancies before roles that fit your plan. Ask which company a role is for before your CV goes anywhere, and apply direct where you can.

Their side

What sectors and roles does FT Recruitment specialize in?

We focus exclusively on the Business Services and Healthcare industries across the United Kingdom. Our placements range from administrative and operational support roles in business environments to clinical and non-clinical staffing within healthcare settings. We work with candidates at various seniority levels, prioritizing those who possess the specific certifications or professional experience required by our clients.

Where you meet

How does the staffing process work for a candidate?

The process begins with a review of your CV against our current active requirements. If your profile aligns with a role, we conduct an initial screening to discuss your career goals and technical capabilities. Following this, we present your profile to relevant hiring managers and coordinate the interview process, providing feedback and guidance at every stage until a decision is made.

What can I expect once I engage with your agency?

Once you are registered, you can expect a professional and transparent communication cadence regarding roles that match your criteria. We do not charge candidates for our services, as our fees are covered by the hiring organizations. While we cannot guarantee a placement, we commit to keeping your details on file for relevant future opportunities as they arise.

Your side

How can I get on the radar of FT Recruitment?

To stand out, ensure your CV clearly highlights your specific experience in Business Services or Healthcare, using industry-standard terminology. Register via our portal and include a cover note that specifies your preferred location and availability. We prioritize candidates who provide complete, up-to-date contact information and a clear summary of their professional certifications.

Is FT Recruitment the right fit for my job search?

We are the right fit if you are seeking professional roles within the Business Services or Healthcare sectors in the UK. If your expertise lies outside these industries, or if you are looking for roles that do not align with our current client base, you may find better success with a more generalized agency. We value candidates who are ready to engage in a collaborative, goal-oriented search process.

How to work with FT Recruitment: candidate playbook

  • Tailor your CV to highlight specific skills relevant to Business Services or Healthcare.
  • Ensure your contact details and professional certifications are current in your profile.
  • Respond promptly to requests for interviews or additional documentation.
  • Ask your consultant for specific feedback after every interview stage.
  • Maintain a list of the roles we have submitted your profile to.

Frequently asked questions

Does registering with FT Recruitment prevent me from applying to other agencies?

No, you are free to register with multiple agencies. In fact, many candidates find it beneficial to work with several recruiters to maximize their exposure to different segments of the job market.

What happens to my personal data after I submit my CV?

Your data is stored securely and used exclusively for recruitment purposes. We will never submit your CV to a potential employer without your explicit consent for that specific role.

Should I still apply directly to a company if I am working with an agency?

It is generally best to coordinate with us first. If you apply directly to a company we are already representing, it can create administrative conflicts that may complicate your candidacy.

How should I follow up if I have not heard back after an interview?

We recommend waiting until the agreed-upon feedback window has passed. If you have not heard from us by then, a brief email or phone call to your dedicated consultant is the best way to request an update.
