Compliance Project
About the Organisation
Harper Recruitment Group worked with a not-for-profit provider of urgent and primary care services across the Midlands. Operating 24/7, they deliver NHS 111, out-of-hours services and integrated urgent care, ensuring accessible, high-quality healthcare for communities.
Following a successful large-scale RPO project, Harper Recruitment Group was contracted to assist with a high-volume pre-employment compliance project, completing onboarding checks including referencing and DBS checks for new starters.
Requirements
- All new starters fully referenced, covering the last two years with a minimum of two references
- Standard DBS check carried out for all new starters
- Minimum 75 completed compliance files per month
What Made Harper the Right Choice?
To meet the high-volume demands, the internal Harper Recruitment Group team was restructured with a dedicated NHS 111 team of Consultants and Administrators formed to work solely on pre-screening, assessment, interview and pre-employment checks. We were handed over 500 candidates to contact and ensure their background checks were completed in time for their training — working closely alongside the organisation’s onboarding team throughout.
The Outcome
- All required pre-employment compliance checks completed.
- Organisation’s backlog cleared while they implemented an internal automated system.
- Pressure relieved from the internal team, speeding up the onboarding process for candidates.
“I am delighted to share my overwhelmingly positive experience working with Harper Recruitment Group on a recent compliance project. From the outset, their professionalism, dedication, and commitment to excellence were evident, making the collaboration an absolute pleasure. The team demonstrated a deep understanding of our compliance needs and showcased their expertise in navigating the complexities of the regulatory landscape. Their ability to seamlessly integrate into our organisation, coupled with their proactive approach to problem-solving, greatly contributed to the success of the project. What truly sets them apart is their commitment to delivering results with a personal touch.”
