Knight & Jones

What Knight & Jones does

Knight & Jones Recruitment Ltd is a UK-based healthcare staffing agency founded in 2019 and headquartered in Stockport. The firm supplies temporary, contract, and permanent healthcare staff — from frontline care and support workers through to senior positions — to healthcare employers including care homes, NHS trusts, and private healthcare facilities across multiple UK regions.

The company operates a traditional recruitment model rather than a technology platform. It runs separate permanent and temporary recruitment divisions, each with dedicated client and candidate contacts, and supports candidates through remote and online registration as well as a structured training and development programme intended to ensure up-to-date qualifications. Distribution is delivered through six regional offices (Stockport HQ, Manchester, Sheffield, Birmingham, Chesterfield, London, and a South West line) plus a corporate website, Facebook, and LinkedIn presence. There is no proprietary technology platform, no API, and no AI/ML capability disclosed.

Knight & Jones earns revenue via transactional placement and staffing fees on both temporary and permanent placements. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm positions itself on healthcare sector specialization (its team has worked on the frontline of healthcare), 24/7/365 on-call service, and pre-vetted, qualified candidates. The company is privately held, with no disclosed external investors, parent entity, or acquisition history, suggesting an independently operated, bootstrapped growth profile.
