HealthSectorTalent (HST) a global healthcare talent consultancy is behind one of the UK’s first mass vaccination recruitment advertising campaigns for Northern Ireland’s Public Health Agency.

Having already designed, built and managed the HSC Workforce Appeal on behalf of the Department of Health Northern Ireland earlier in the year, the highly successful Workforce Appeal was reopened by the Minister of Health in October to meet the rising demand for clinical and non-clinical temporary staff across the whole of the health and social care system in Northern Ireland.

Over the past 9 months, the HSC Workforce Appeal has generated over 30,000 applications and delivered thousands of candidates directly to the five NHS Trusts, Ambulance Service, Independent Care Sector and more recently the Public Health Agency for Contact Tracing.

As countries and governments around the world gear up to roll-out their Covid-19 mass vaccination programmes, HST has created an additional campaign under the existing Workforce Appeal to source and recruit thousands of Registered Healthcare Professionals, Healthcare Support Workers and Administration staff to support and assist in the provision of Northern Ireland’s regional vaccination programme.
