Why Mindful Staffing? In short, mental health recruitment has lost its soul. Having cumulatively worked in the industry for over 40 years, we have seen significant change. Some of this has been very positive, however we feel that due to advancements in technology and an increase in automation, people-centric methods have noticeably declined - which has put distance between recruiters, and their clients and candidates. Through Mindful Staffing, we aim to bring back the human approach to mental health recruitment - focussing on understanding, connection and care. This starts by building genuine relationships with our people, establishing their wants and needs, and empowering them to make those aspirations a reality.
