One of the strategic operations of SGB Consultancy Services is a Recruitment & Resourcing Division, Search and Selection and Workforce Planning & Development. We specialise in the placement of healthcare professionals into the NHS and independent healthcare, social care and management consulting organisations.
SGB Consultancy Services is headed up by Sajid Baloch who possesses 26 years recruitment experience in private and public sectors, including 12 years in the healthcare sector. This strong track record allows us to work closely with our clients and candidates with a proactive and time-effective approach, ensuring their requirements are met in a robust and dynamic manner.
At the heart of what we do is our relationship with clients and candidates. Long after we have completed recruitment campaigns for our clients or secured relevant, career-progressing roles for our candidates, we continue to nurture relationships. This forms the basis for long-term relationships built on:
- Trust
- Confidence
- Open communications
- Honesty, integrity and respect
- Seeking proactive and innovative solutions

OUR GUIDING PHILOSOPHY
SGB Consultancy Services recruitment division was established to provide end-to-end recruitment & resourcing, workforce development and consulting services across Healthcare. Our whole raison d’etre is to deliver customised solutions to our clients and candidates, speedily, effectively and with minimum demands on their time. Our aim is to be the recruitment partner of choice.
Our underlying philosophy is to listen attentively to our clients and convert their requirements into successful outcomes. Whether these are completion of recruitment campaigns or simply providing guidance on workforce related issues, we operate in a strong partnership with candidates and clients. We recognise that no two assignments are the same and therefore do not adopt the one-solution-fits-all approach to client and candidate development.
SUPPORT FOR OUR CLIENTS
Throughout the recruitment process, from discussing the brief, identifying, screening, shortlisting candidates, offer management to facilitating the onboarding process, we adopt full attention to detail in supporting our clients. Where required we provide value-add by presenting alternative solutions which may benefit our clients.
In a competitive and ever-changing market, we do not take anything for granted, ensuring we balance strategic thinking with a fine eye for detail. Whether the hiring is on an interim, fixed term contract or permanent basis, we support our clients in an ethical, compassionate and professional manner.

Our delivery is underpinned by our:
- collaborative working with our clients
- quest for excellence
- ongoing honest, respectful communication with clients and candidates
- getting it right first time
- promoting equality, diversity and inclusion
- a robust, dynamic approach to identifying and securing exceptional talent
- innovation and creativity throughout the process
While we possess a strong database of candidates, this is not the only method we rely on to source candidates for our clients. We are experienced in adopting any of the following methods or a mix of methods:
- Executive Search / Direct Headhunt
- Networking through existing candidates and clients
- Advertising and marketing communications
- LinkedIn and Social Media
Whatever the method of sourcing and selection, our screening process is rigorous and only the most relevant candidates are considered for our client requirements.

SUPPORT FOR OUR CANDIDATES
We recognise that our candidates of today are our clients of tomorrow. This means taking a genuine interest in their career development. Through adoption of Coaching and where appropriate, Mentoring techniques, we can guide our candidates through the maze of career development, offering a personal service based on quality.
We pay particular attention to:
- career ambitions
- existing skillset and skills gaps
- qualifications
- career trajectory
- transferrable skills in the event of a change in sectors
We do not believe in fitting “square pegs into round holes”. If our candidates are to achieve their full potential, we have to pay particular attention to their every career move. We try to fit each move into their overall career development programme.
Once we have determined the way forward, we actively market our candidates’ skillset. Where needed we conduct “reverse headhunt” and proactively approach clients who, based on our expertise and market knowledge, may be interested in a given, perhaps scarce skillset.
Placement of our candidates is not the end of the journey, but the continuation of the relationship. We remain in regular contact to ensure any issues needing attention are resolved immediately.
