Hunts Recruitment Limited
Hunts Recruitment Limited is a UK-based, family-run specialist recruitment consultancy dedicated to the health and social care sectors. Based in Hampshire, they provide staffing solutions to residential services, supported living provisions, schools, and care homes.
Who We Are
Founded on over a decade of industry experience, the agency functions as a relationship-led partner for both employers and job seekers. They distinguish themselves from generalist agencies by focusing exclusively on the complexities and regulatory standards of the care sector.
What We Do
Hunts Recruitment manages the full lifecycle of staffing, providing both temporary and permanent solutions:
- Specialist Placement: Providing qualified staff for children’s residential homes, supported living services, schools, and general care environments.
- Emergency & Short-Notice Cover: Offering a responsive service to manage staffing gaps and ensure service continuity for healthcare providers.
- Compliance & Vetting: Operating as a REC-accredited agency, they ensure all candidates undergo rigorous vetting, including enhanced DBS checks, full reference verification, right-to-work checks, and training validation.
Approach & Values
- Sector Expertise: Their consultants understand the specific pressures of the industry, such as CQC and Ofsted expectations and safeguarding responsibilities.
- Quality Over Quantity: Rather than focusing on high-volume, "sales-led" recruitment, they prioritise placing individuals who align with the culture, ethos, and values of the specific service.
- Relationship-Led: As a family-run business, they aim to build long-term partnerships with regional and national care providers to deliver consistent, dependable staffing support.
Industry Role
