international

Tripod international’s reputation as a trusted and professional recruitment partner is known around the world.

Tripod international's reach is truly global. We engage and place the most suited qualified social work and nursing candidates in mid-level to senior roles within the UK and other territories including Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa, Philippines, Trinidad and Tobago and India. We do this by building successful campaigns that meet the needs of both clients and candidates.

Our resourcing hubs in Canada and South Africa, which are led by qualified social workers and social work consultants, provide real-time insight into candidate availability and industry news. Similarly, our partnership with a New Zealand-based recruitment expert means sourcing nurses and qualified social workers to UK posts runs smoothly.

Working alongside our UK-based consultants, who have more than 30 years’ experience of international recruitment, tripod international has developed a thorough understanding of professional expectations and client needs across the globe.

We placed more than 100 social workers into positions with the State of Victoria, South Australia in 2018 and, with our office in Sydney, can easily recruit experienced nurses, social workers and other allied health professionals to posts quickly and efficiently.

Our service is not just about recruitment, however. We offer a full aftercare support programme for clients and candidates including visa support, HCPC and NMC registration, airport assistance, sourcing accommodation and utilities so new recruits can enjoy a smooth transition.

Our specially designed English test for non-English speaking social work candidates is an added benefit for clients to ensure their new recruits enjoy a smooth transition into the team.

Client journey

We work with you to not only attract candidates but support you through every step of the recruitment process, from interviewing, selection, legal checks and advice on visa applications, to ongoing aftercare for both candidates and clients. In the long-term working with us reduces your overall agency expenditure, which means you can allocate your vital funds towards your services.

We use an English test for non-English speaking candidates that has been designed for tripod international to ensure all candidates have a proficient level of spoken English. The test uses specific social work terminology so you can be sure candidates who make it through to the interview have a thorough understanding of the language and the UK social work industry.
