For nurses · UK

Every UK nursing role, scored against your band.

NHS Jobs, Trac, HealthJobsUK, NursingNetUK, plus the private and agency roles that live on Reed and Adzuna. One scored feed instead of four separate searches. We read your band, your specialism, and your home postcode from your CV and rank every live role against you.

Free to try. £12.99/mo for the full thing. Built by one person, in the UK, who got tired of watching nurses spend Sunday evenings reading job adverts.

What Flint covers for nurses

  • NHS Jobs. Every NHS trust in the UK. ~11k live roles at any time. Detail-page enriched so the full description (~2,600 chars median) is in the score.
  • Trac (HealthJobsUK + NursingNetUK). Civica's healthcare ATS. Overlaps with NHS Jobs but adds private and independent inventory.
  • Reed. Largest UK private-sector board. Agency nursing, care home, and private hospital listings.
  • Adzuna. Wider UK private-sector aggregator. Adds locum and contract roles.
  • CharityJob. Hospice, community care, public-health charity nursing roles. Niche but real.

All five ingested twice daily, deduped, scored against your CV, and staleness-swept so listings that closed last month don't waste your evening. We don't replace these boards. We aggregate and rank them.

Why nurses end up here

NHS Jobs is the source of truth for trust roles and we ingest from it directly. The gap is everything else: cross-trust scoring, band ranking, the private and agency layer, ghost-listing cleanup, CV feedback that knows AfC vocabulary.

When NHS Jobs alone is enough

Honestly: not every nurse needs Flint. There are searches where NHS Jobs covers it.

When Flint is the better pick

Why I built this

A midwife I know applied to forty roles and heard back from one.

Half had closed before she found them. A third were the same role reposted by agencies. The one that did come back was at a trust two hours away that her postcode filter missed because the advert called it "Greater Manchester" and her search said "Manchester."

Flint is the thing I wish she'd had. Drop the CV in once, see every relevant role from every board scored against you, with the ghost listings already swept and the agency reposts already deduped. NHS, Trac, private, agency — one feed.

Frequently asked

The specific questions nurses ask before signing up.

Does Flint replace NHS Jobs?

No. NHS Jobs is the source of truth for NHS trust roles, and we ingest from it directly. You still apply via NHS Jobs (or Trac, or wherever the role lives). Flint sits on top: it scores every NHS role against your CV alongside every relevant private/agency role, so you stop opening four separate sites every evening.

How does Flint know my band?

From your CV. The parser reads your most recent role and the progression history; "Band 6 staff nurse, Birmingham Children's NHS Trust, 2022–present" classifies you correctly within seconds. You can also edit it in your profile if it gets it wrong.

Can it tell ITU from A&E from theatre?

Yes. The discipline taxonomy under the hood treats clinical specialisms as distinct lanes within `care.clinical`, so a theatre nurse looking for scrub roles doesn't get ITU agency posts in their top matches. The scoring is based on what you've actually done, not just what your job title says.

What about midwifery, mental health, district nursing?

Covered. Each is a recognised specialism in the taxonomy. A community mental health nurse scores against community + mental health roles first, not generic adult acute. Same for midwives, health visitors, district nurses, school nurses, and nurse practitioners.

Does it handle agency / locum work?

Yes. Reed and Adzuna carry agency listings; we score them with the same engine. If you set your CV's salary expectation as an hourly rate and your work preference as locum, the matching adapts.

I'm on the Pay Review Body bands. Will Flint understand the AfC structure?

Yes for Bands 5–8 and the Band 8a/8b/8c sub-bands. The salary scorer knows the typical AfC ranges per band as of the latest published review. Cross-band roles (Band 6 acting up to Band 7) are surfaced as adjacency matches with a small cap.

What does Flint cost?

Free to see your top 10 scored matches in a 21-day window plus 1 CV review insight. Pro is £12.99/mo for unlimited matches, full CV review, cover letters, and salary context per role. Concierge is £29.99/mo and adds an on-demand refresh button. Pause or cancel any time. No card to try the free tier.

Is my CV safe?

The PDF or Word file is deleted as soon as the text comes out (within thirty seconds). Only the parsed text stays, never the original document. Nothing is sold to recruiters. The data lives on Railway's EU servers under ZEALOUS OÜ, a UK-GDPR-compliant Estonian entity.
