Terms of business

Last updated 7 October 2026

These terms apply to clients (employers) and set out the key commercial provisions only.

1. Parties and scope

These terms apply to the introduction of candidates by Health Hunt Talent Ltd (“the Agency”) to the client for permanent engagement. By interviewing or engaging a candidate introduced by the Agency, the client accepts these terms. The Agency acts as an employment agency within the meaning of the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003 and does not employ, sponsor or pay candidates.

2. Introductions

An introduction is the Agency passing a candidate’s identity or details to the client. An introduction remains valid for 12 months. If the client, or any associated entity, engages an introduced candidate within that period, a fee is payable.

3. Fees

Fees are calculated as a percentage of the candidate’s first-year gross annual remuneration, including basic salary, guaranteed allowances such as housing and transport, and guaranteed bonuses, as set out in the fee schedule agreed with the client. Retained search and project fees are set out in the relevant engagement letter.

4. Invoicing and payment

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are issued on the candidate’s start date and are payable within [30] days. The Agency may charge statutory interest on late payments and may suspend services while any balance is overdue.

5. Replacement guarantee

If a candidate leaves or is dismissed for performance within three (3) months of starting, the Agency will make reasonable efforts to provide a replacement at no further fee, provided that: the invoice was paid in full and on time; the role has not materially changed; the client followed reasonable onboarding practice; and the client notified the Agency within 7 days. Refunds are not normally given.

6. Candidate information

Candidate information is confidential and provided only for recruitment purposes. The client must comply with applicable data protection laws, must not share candidate details with third parties, and is responsible for its own employment, visa, licensing and background checks.

7. Liability

The Agency takes reasonable steps to confirm candidates’ identity and qualifications but does not guarantee their suitability. To the extent permitted by law, the Agency’s liability is limited to the fee paid for the relevant introduction.

8. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.

9. Candidates

The Agency never charges candidates a fee for finding them work.
