BBT on PASA Framework

Beresford Blake Thomas (BBT) is pleased to announce that the consultancy has been accepted on the NHS Purchasing and Supply Agency (PASA) framework. BBT is one of 50 agencies to be approved to supply AHP staff and this is the second time the company has been awarded the PASA agreement. The contract will run to 2009.

Under the agreement, BBT will supply temporary staff in allied health professions (AHP) and health and scientific staff, with particular emphasis on occupational therapy, speech and language therapists, podiatry, radiography, physiotherapists.

BBT has also been asked to supply scientific and technical support to the NHS. Positions include biomedical scientists, healthcare science assistants, healthcare science consultants, optometrists and pharmacists.

Jonathon Wright, Sales Director for BBT said: This is an important step for BBT as it recognises the company as a key supplier to the NHS for AHP and scientific staff. It also acknowledges our ability to provide quality staff within a competitive pricing structure.

Geographically this agreement means we can service NHS trusts across the country, tapping into our network of 24 offices in the UK to source the staff required. Of course this means we will be furnishing our clients with the same high quality service that we currently have a reputation for.

Our candidates can be reassured that they are working with a recognised agency that is working in partnership with the NHS to fulfil key vacancies by providing flexible staffing solutions. It will also provide them with a wider range of career opportunities to choose from within AHP job roles at all levels.
