Substantive Applicants

Welcome to the Substantive Onboarding Hub

The Substantive application route is suitable for anyone that is already permanently employed at one of our partner Trusts and is looking to provide additional support there – for example, extra shifts, holiday cover or help with seasonal demands.

As a Substantive applicant, we just need to check your right to work and confirm that you hold a current substantive post with your Trust and then you will be able to start booking additional shifts.

The interactive images below illustrate the journey to becoming a Substantive member of the NHSP Bank and the actions required from you to do so, click on each individual step to find out more. 

You will be supported through the onboarding journey by your onsite NHSP team. You can find their details by clicking here. Choose your Trust and then scroll to the bottom of their webpage for contact details.

Please note that as you are employed at an NHS Trust, joining NHS Professionals will be considered a second job by HMRC. You will be asked to confirm whether working through NHS Professionals is a second job within your application.
