Across the UK, healthcare systems are stretched thin. Traditional agency models are often expensive, inefficient, and unable to keep pace with clinical demand. Flexzo Ai is answering the call for something better. Led by founder Jack Henderson, the company is building what aims to be the country’s largest collaborative staff bank powered by artificial intelligence and designed specifically for the NHS and its partners.
At its core is the Collaborative Staff Bank, a system directly connecting over 100,000 pre-approved healthcare professionals with NHS Trusts and private providers. This is a strategic initiative away from agencies and toward a self-managed, intelligent workforce. “We didn’t just want to digitise recruitment. We wanted to decentralise it,” says Henderson.
Flexzo’s platform uses real-time data to match available clinicians to relevant roles, factoring in skills, specialisms, availability, and even travel feasibility. Notifications are precise and timely, delivered by SMS, email, or WhatsApp, making traditional booking systems feel obsolete.
Compliance That Runs on Autopilot
Compliance is a cornerstone of safe staffing and one of its biggest logistical burdens. Flexzo Ai automates the entire process. It audits CVs in real time, flags gaps in work history, and cross-checks references instantly. This removes the manual grind of validation and ensures profiles are accurate from the start.
From DBS checks to Right to Work documents and professional registrations (GMC, NMC, GPhC), every credential is tracked and verified. The system also handles medical clearances, including EPP and Non-EPP blood tests. Expiry reminders are issued before documents lapse, reducing downtime and admin risk.
“Speed is only helpful if it’s safe,” says Henderson. “Flexzo Ai makes safety the baseline, not a bottleneck.” With no human bottlenecks and no missed deadlines, recruiters can shift focus from chasing paperwork to strategic workforce planning.

A Smarter Way to Work for Staff and Employers
The Collaborative Staff Bank is built not just for hospitals, but for the clinicians who keep them running. Professionals gain freedom over their schedules, higher pay, and access to better opportunities all without dealing with multiple agencies. After a one-time upload of their documents, the AI handles compliance, shift matching, and communications.
Candidates receive shift options tailored to their roles, locations, and real-time availability. The platform avoids spam alerts and only surfaces jobs they can realistically take. This keeps staff engaged and reduces burnout from irrelevant offers or last-minute scramble bookings.
The platform also provides free validation and appraisals, including CV feedback and job-readiness reviews supporting career growth while maintaining compliance. And because the platform takes no cut from NHS tariffs, hospitals save money while professionals earn more.
Supporting NHS Clinics with Flexible Insourcing
Flexzo’s impact goes beyond recruitment. A Clinical Service Planning tool enables NHS hospitals to run additional clinics using their own infrastructure and, where needed, staff from the Collaborative Staff Bank.
Hospitals input their staffing needs and desired dates. The system generates a financial forecast showing how much it will cost to run the clinic and how much they can claim back in funding. This forecast can then be shared with service leads and finance teams. The system locates and deploys qualified professionals automatically.
This method lowers waiting lists, improves access to care, and reduces reliance on costly agency interventions. The platform scales easily, giving NHS Trusts the flexibility to manage short-term surges or long-term gaps without handing control to third parties.
Delivering Speed Transparency and Trust in Staffing
Flexzo Ai is more than a staffing tool. It is a structural reimagining of how healthcare recruitment can and should work. Its AI-powered compliance, precision matching, and direct-to-hospital staff bank offer a faster, cheaper, and more transparent model for a sector long overdue for reinvention.
With over 100,000 healthcare professionals connected and a growing presence in NHS insourcing projects, Flexzo is well on its way to building the UK’s largest collaborative staff bank. “A national, connected workforce that works for everyone: patients, clinicians, and hospitals. That’s what Flexzo is here to build,” says Jack Henderson.
It is a bold goal, but one grounded in practical tools and real results.
