Independent-contractor opportunities

Our contractor register remains open for appropriately qualified professionals.

UNDERSTANDING THE ARRANGEMENT

What is an independent contractor?

An independent contractor is a self-employed professional who may provide services to WMS on individual assignments. They are not a WMS employee and joining the register does not guarantee work, regular shifts or a minimum level of engagement.

WMS uses an approved contractor register so we can draw on appropriately qualified professionals when services require additional clinical or operational capacity, while maintaining safe, regulated patient care.

How the arrangement works

  • You decide whether to accept an assignment offered to you; WMS is not obliged to offer work and you are not obliged to accept it.
  • Once you accept an assignment, you are expected to attend and deliver it safely, professionally and within your competence.
  • You invoice WMS for completed services and remain responsible for your own tax and National Insurance arrangements.
  • You must keep your qualifications, DBS, registration and required compliance evidence current.
  • While working on WMS assignments, you follow the clinical-governance, safeguarding, safety, confidentiality and regulatory standards needed to protect patients and the public.
Not sure which route applies?PAYE vacancies are employment roles advertised when available. The contractor register is a self-employed route for individual assignments. The full contractor terms and handbook are provided during the review and onboarding process.
