Inside The Test Centre: How We’re Supporting The Fight Against COVID-19


At last, 2020 is far behind us and we’re finally in a fresh new year. Yet the COVID-19 situation remains almost the same. In these far-from-normal times, organisations across the country are doing all they can to fight the virus, but they’re still struggling to find staff with the right skills for the job. 

We’re helping to change that by training and supplying temporary workers to support you through lockdown 3.0 and beyond. Here, we discuss exactly how we’re supporting the fight against COVID-19, and how we can help your organisation do the same.

Our expertise

From our experience, we know that a wide variety of roles need to be filled for a COVID-19 test centre to operate effectively. And, with COVID-19 guidance changing on a regular basis and the need to test growing by the day, you want reliable staff who are available straight away.

The thing is, recruiting at such a level can be a daunting and time-consuming task – and if there’s one thing we don’t have, it’s time. That’s why we’ve been working day and night to supply test and vaccine centres across the UK with local, temporary workers who have the necessary skills to get the job done.

What we provide

Whether you need external results recorders or general operatives, we can provide a range of COVID-19 support roles straight to your testing site. By hiring temporary staff to support you through the pandemic, you’ll be able to operate as normal without your existing workers needing to step outside their typical role.

Our candidates understand just how important this work is for you, which is exactly why they’ve been trained to take care of the public in a professional and friendly manner. They’ll ensure productivity remains high and that everything moves in the right direction, so that we can finally beat COVID-19.

How we’ve helped

Of course, we don’t merely provide skilled workers – we also deliver results.

Last year, one of our clients required testers who were both competent and committed to helping the NHS combat COVID-19. The main problem is that testing sites require skilled supervisors, assistants, site managers and cleaners that must operate in strict working bubbles.

We helped them overcome this challenge by working with our clients to recruit and train local staff in a quick and effective manner. Some sites went from commissioning to live within the space of a few days. We instructed our candidates virtually before they received further training on-site to ensure that the roles were conducted safely and professionally. In all, our team deployed over 400 candidates who were available 7 days a week across over 20 sites.
