Descriptiontext

PAM Group (legal entity: People Asset Management Group Limited) is a UK-based occupational health, rehabilitation, wellbeing and absence management provider founded in 2004. The company serves over 2,000 employers and supports more than 1.5 million employees across the United Kingdom and Ireland, offering a multi-disciplinary service portfolio that spans occupational health assessments, health surveillance, MSK physiotherapy, mental health and counselling, employee assistance programmes, neurodiversity support, ergonomics, pre-placement screening and phased return-to-work programmes. Its core technology is OHIO, an internally developed online platform that functions as a secure central hub for employee health records and service activity across all delivery channels, complemented by 4G-enabled mobile clinic units designed to replicate a full clinic environment in geographically constrained or remote worksites.

The business operates a B2B enterprise sales motion targeting HR and wellbeing decision-makers in employers of varying sizes, with services delivered through four channels — virtual, onsite, in-clinic and a managed community network of more than 600 independent associates. Pricing is contract-based and not publicly disclosed, structured around employer headcount, service scope and delivery model. Revenue is generated through recurring contracted occupational health, rehabilitation, wellbeing and absence management engagements. The company has executed a programmatic roll-up strategy, acquiring Concept Northern, 66fit, Physio Supplies, MedProtect and Corporate Health Ireland between 2020 and 2023 with backing from LDC (Lloyds Development Capital). In February 2026, PAM Healthcare was acquired by Optima Health Group for £100m, positioning the combined entity as the leading standalone UK occupational health provider with an estimated 15% share of the £1.6bn UK market.

InvestegateOptima Announces Brand Transition of PAM GroupOptima Health announced the transition of the PAM Group brand to the Optima Health name, following its March 2026 acquisition. The consolidation reflects the first phase of integration, aiming to unify teams and support a stronger service delivery model. CEO Jonathan Thomas said the move gives clients and people greater clarity.openPR.comEmerging Sub-Segments Transforming the Medical Health Screening Market LandscapeThe global medical health screening market is projected to reach $26.97 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 6.4%, driven by rising adoption of personalized medicine, digital health platforms, and increased focus on early disease detection. In January 2023, UK-based PAM Group acquired MedProtect to expand its occupational health offerings by integrating MedProtect's mobile health screening services. In May 2025, US-based iRhythm Technologies launched its Zio Long-Term Continuous Monitoring Service in Japan, featuring a patch-based ECG system with deep-learning AI approval from Japan's Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency.HR MagazineWorkplace counselling demand increases while access fallsPAM Group released its Health at Work Report on 9 October, revealing that employee demand for workplace mental health counselling rose from 45% in 2021 to 57% in 2025, while access to such services fell from 25% to 22% and actual usage declined from 14% to 11% over the same period. The survey of 1,000 UK workers, conducted by Sapio Research in July 2025, found that employees face barriers including concerns about confidentiality and perceptions that seeking help could harm their career prospects. PAM Group's managing director highlighted the business case for preventative counselling, noting that employees with employer-supported health resources are more than twice as likely to take no sick leave and eight times more likely to report high productivity.Health & ProtectionPAM Group buys Corporate Health IrelandPAM Group has acquired Corporate Health Ireland (CHI), a consultant-led occupational health services provider with 100 staff and €11m in annual revenues.
