Why Don’t We List Job Vacancies on Our Website?

We get it. Scrolling through a long list of shiny job vacancies sounds super convenient. It feels productive, it’s easy, and it’s what most agencies do. So, why don’t we? Well, buckle up, because we’re about to give you the inside scoop on why we’ve made the deliberate choice not to have a job board plastered across our website. Spoiler: it’s all about honesty and putting you first.
The Reality of Agency Nursing and Midwifery Roles
Here’s the truth: agency roles are like the tide – they come and go, sometimes faster than you can refresh your browser. What’s available at 9 a.m. might be completely gone by lunchtime. Keeping an “up-to-the-minute” job board accurate would require a full-time person with superhuman typing speed, updating it every 10 minutes.
And honestly, wouldn’t you rather we use that time and energy to actually find you the perfect role?
The Problem with “Vanishing” Jobs
If you’ve ever worked with an agency, you might have had that frustrating moment where you’ve spotted a dream job listed, reached out in record time, only to hear… “Oh, that’s just been filled!” It starts to feel like one of two things is happening:
Every nurse and midwife in Australia has lightning-fast reflexes and magical Wi-Fi speeds.
That job listing might never have really existed.
The reality is often somewhere in between. In a market with so many agencies and staff, jobs can get filled quickly. As an agency, we’re often the ‘middle-man,’ liaising with someone on-site who is also a ‘middle-man.’ Delays in communication can sometimes mean roles are filled by other staff from other agencies before we’ve even had the chance to present them to you. It’s not a conspiracy, but we understand why it might feel that way.
We know how frustrating and disheartening that feels because we’ve been there ourselves, navigating agency life as nurses and midwives. It’s a feeling we’re committed to eliminating. We refuse to dangle roles that aren’t truly available just to get you to pick up the phone. Transparency is one of our core values, and we’re not about to compromise on that.
How We Do Things Differently
Instead of a static list of jobs that might already be gone, we prefer to connect with you personally. When you reach out, we’ll take the time to understand your needs, preferences, and goals. Are you looking for short-term flexibility? A contract that allows your partner or family to come along? A particular location or specialty? We take all of that into account before matching you with roles.
By skipping the job board, we can focus on:
Honest conversations: Understanding your goals and aligning them with the right opportunities.
Real-time options: Finding roles that are actually open and match your criteria.
Building trust: Ensuring you’re never left wondering if the role was real or if we’re playing recruitment roulette.
The Personal Touch
Ultimately, our no-listings approach allows us to spend more time doing what we do best: building genuine connections and supporting you in your agency nursing or midwifery journey. When you reach out to Kenmore Health Recruitment, you’re not just another name on a roster. You’re a valued part of our community, and we’re here to make sure you feel that every step of the way.
So, while it might seem “helpful” to scroll through a list of roles, we’ve found that this approach simply isn’t what’s best for you. Instead, we’re keeping it real, cutting out the noise, and focusing on what truly matters: finding the right role for the right person at the right time.
If you’re ready to explore your next opportunity, let’s chat! Drop us a line, and we’ll dive straight into finding your perfect fit. No guesswork, no conspiracy theories – just real jobs for real people.
