BMJ Careers: connecting job seekers and employers in healthcare Since 2005, BMJ Careers has been essential in bringing job seekers and employers together within the healthcare sector. Today, nearly half of NHS trusts and health boards in the UK subscribe to BMJ Careers, and the platform has long established itself as a trusted resource for recruitment and career development. It supports 55% of consultant vacancies in England and Wales, highlighting its importance in the job market.
In the second half of 2023, BMJ Careers received 67.4K medical job applications, a 12% increase from the year’s first half and a 39% rise from the same period in 2022.
Addressing the NHS staffing crisis: how BMJ Health Careers is transforming mental health recruitment In 2022, we responded to the staffing crisis by launching BMJ Health Careers—the UK’s first dedicated recruitment service for all clinical mental health roles. The online job board provides mental health specialists with thousands of live vacancies for their area of expertise. During the past year, BMJ Health Careers facilitated 31,000 applications, a threefold increase from the first half and a tenfold rise from the previous year. These figures highlight our vital contribution to helping health organisations grow, retain, and upskill their clinical workforces, meeting the industry’s ever evolving needs.
