Bank Partners is the leading independent expert in managed staff bank solutions to the NHS

We increase capacity in your contingent staffing
We reduce the demand on your healthcare workforce
Together, we improve patient outcomes

In the world of managed staff bank provision, Bank Partners is unique.
Working in true partnership, we elevate the processes, people and technological capabilities of our clients’ flexible workforce models. We ensure valued healthcare professionals are supported to work flexibly whilst providing much-needed cover for potential gaps in staffing that would otherwise impact patient safety.  

For our partners:
By managing all aspects of the contingent staffing process including bank workforce and agency supply chain, as well as close engagement with Trust stakeholders through our dedicated on-site teams, we not only increase the number of shifts filled by the Trust's own workforce as opposed to agency staff, but also crucially tackle the root causes that lead to high agency spend.

For our healthcare staff:
Our Bank Partners colleagues, many of whom have a background in health and care, are experts in their fields. Whether it's recruitment, compliance, bookings, clinical support, customer service or beyond - we are there for our NHS colleagues at every stage of their working life.

Part of Acacium Group, our expertise in contingent staffing is now part of a much wider offering to healthcare providers that aligns workforce and patient flow solutions in order to increase both capability and capacity at hospital, Trust, or ICS level across acute services as well as social care and community support systems. This supports our purpose to improve people’s lives through expert healthcare, social care and life sciences and ultimately help our partners across the NHS focus on delivering high-quality patient care.

An example of our successes with one NHS Trust partnership:

  • Bank Partners' fill rates exceeds 90% across the Trust
  • We have an average 77% fill rate in 'hard to fill' areas
  • Since 2014 we have filled 24 million bank hours across the Trust
  • We have ensured that 874,000 agency shifts were avoided, saving £300 million
     

“Bank Partners has not only helped Barts Health to achieve some industry-leading savings on our temporary workforce spend, but this relationship has opened the doors to wider conversations with Acacium Group brands to help us simplify supply chains and take away pain-points that we couldn’t have resolved otherwise.
By partnering with companies across the whole Acacium Group, we have achieved more than the sum of both our parts in a unique relationship that continues to deliver.”
