Account Executive
Driving the success of Patchwork by forming new partnerships with our clients, and transforming the way they work!
About Us
Since 2016, Patchwork Health has been on a mission to make truly flexible and sustainable working a reality for all healthcare staff. Their fully integrated workforce management solution helps optimise outcomes for organisations, managers, staff and patients alike. Built by a team of dedicated healthcare veterans, and co-created with the NHS, their technology and services have been embraced by over 100 healthcare sites to date.
Patchwork offers a range of different solutions, including temporary staff banks, which enable organisations to source temporary staff from their own pool of approved workers; ‘collaborative staff banks’, which help healthcare organisations team up with others in the same region to widen and share their temporary staffing pools; an innovative new rostering solution which enables more flexible, sustainable staffing for permanent healthcare staff; and an Agency Manager which makes it easier for managers to select appropriate temporary staff from external agencies when necessary. Patchwork Insights also provides managers with comprehensive data oversight, to monitor staffing trends, shift fill rates and pay rate escalations, and reliably plan ahead to prevent staffing gaps.
Patchwork Health has been recognised as HSJ’s 2022 Staffing Solution of the Year, and have recently received the prestigious HSJ Partnership Award and the Spectator’s Economic Innovator of the Year Award.

Patchwork Values
-
Start with Empathy
We must lead with our humanity in every interaction, with our customers and our colleagues. With customers we start with empathy to truly understand their perspectives and deliver solutions that appreciate the complexities of their lives in healthcare. Within our teams, when people feel understood, they're more receptive to others' concerns—and team cohesion and collaboration follow.
-
Create Impact
We started Patchwork to make a difference to the lives of people in healthcare. And our impact is amplified when we strive for excellence in everything we do. And when each one of us gets to combine our love for our craft with the ability to make a real impact - only then can we make Patchwork a company we are proud to be part of.
-
Choose Courage
To choose courage is to challenge the status quo, to be remain ambitious, to choose the hard path if needed, to take risks and not fear failure, and to allow yourself to be vulnerable.
-
Own the Outcome
Ownership begins with accepting the responsibility of a project, product or even task, from inception to outcome. With true ownership of outcomes we find autonomy in our roles and become accountable towards our customers and colleagues.
-

We can only win by coming together as a single team.
It starts by treating each other with respect and kindness, building on each other's strengths to grow together, balancing team goals with personal goals, and always celebrating collective wins.
