Why CQC Jobs Exists
Generic recruitment agencies can fill a care role — but they rarely understand what that role demands. CQC Jobs was built specifically because regulated care providers deserve a specialist CQC recruitment agency who knows the difference between Regulation 18 and Regulation 19, who understands what a CQC inspection looks at, and who won't waste your time with candidates who can't pass enhanced DBS.
We are part of the Hiring Manager Network — a group of specialist recruitment agencies each built around a single sector. That focus is not a marketing position. It shapes how we screen, how we shortlist, and how we support placements after the offer is signed.
What Makes Us Different
Compliance Is Our Starting Point
Regulation 18 & 19 as Standard
Every candidate screened against CQC's staffing and fit-and-proper-persons requirements before any shortlist is presented to you.
Full Pre-Offer Checks
Enhanced DBS, NMC/HCPC verification, right-to-work, full employment history, and references — all completed upfront.
12-Week Placement Guarantee
We stand behind every hire. 100% refund in weeks 1–4. 50% in weeks 5–8. 25% in weeks 9–12. No quibble, no delay.
100,000+ Verified Candidates
Part of the Hiring Manager Network — the largest verified pool of UK care professionals available to a specialist CQC recruitment agency.
Our Values
What We Believe
Quality over volume
We present 3–5 candidates who are genuinely right for the role — not 20 CVs that match a job title.
Compliance is non-negotiable
No candidate reaches your desk without meeting the regulatory baseline your organisation must maintain.
Culture fit matters as much as qualifications
High turnover in care is expensive and disruptive. We match values, communication style, and care philosophy — not just certificates.
Transparency at every stage
You know exactly where your search stands. No disappearing acts, no vague timelines.
