Testimonials from our valued clients.

Frequently asked questions.

There are hundreds of agencies that claim to understand healthcare. However, our desire and dedication to supporting our clients and staff sets us apart, and we are at the forefront of technology to help our clients ease the burden of staffing.

Cucumber Healthcare Recruitment finds candidates and staff through a multi-faceted approach, including online job boards, professional networking platforms, social media outreach, and partnerships.

Additionally, they employ targeted recruitment strategies tailored to the healthcare industry. This diverse approach ensures they attract qualified candidates across various disciplines within the healthcare sector.

Our extensive database of highly skilled healthcare workers makes our process swift and secure.

As soon as a prospective client reaches out to us to enquire about available professionals, a team member will search our roster and reach out to individuals matching that client’s requirements regarding experience and qualifications.

It’s a very slick process that can connect healthcare organisations with their perfect staff members promptly.

Absolutely. At Cucumber, we are all too aware that one of the main causes of recruitment delays is a lack of up-to-date paperwork, background checks and training.

We invest in all of the staff in our database to ensure that their qualifications, documentation, and registrations remain current.

We even provide in-house training to help workers progress and specialise – which means that the staff you engage through Cucumber will have even more to offer.
