Patchwork
We’re a team of NHS veterans who have lived the pressures of healthcare staffing
We are founded by clinicians and on a mission to make truly effective and sustainable working a reality for all healthcare professionals. In 2024, we acquired L2P, and now together provide a fully integrated workforce planning and management solution that improves capacity planning and workforce deployment.
Co-created with the NHS and with a team of healthcare veterans on board, our end-to-end solution has been embraced by over 200 healthcare organisations and 100,000 clinicians, saving £180 million and counting in workforce costs.
What Patchwork offers their employees
Flexibility
Remote-first (with infrequent office time)
A little flexibility in start and finish times
Flexible working at Patchwork
We are first and foremost a flexible employer. This was a day-one priority for us and something we continue to stand for. Flexible working can be expected and is encouraged at Patchwork. We know and understand that people work best in ways that meet their individual needs and we know we can reach a more diverse talent pool by being a flexible employer. We strive to ensure Patchwork is a place where individuals can bring their whole selves to work.
Inclusion & Belonging at Patchwork
Our strength comes from our people, and we’re intentional about building a team where different perspectives, experiences and backgrounds are represented and respected. We don’t treat DEI&B as a separate initiative - it’s built into how we hire and work every day. A few of the ways we do this include:
- Anonymising applications to reduce bias
- Focusing on hiring the right person for the role, based on skills and potential
- Encouraging referrals to broaden access through our team’s individual network
For us, inclusion and belonging aren’t slogans or standalone programmes - they’re part of how we build our team and support each other day-to-day. Head to our careers page to find out more.

Patchwork Health sets goals high for the team and high performance is expected across the business. Patchwork also provides the most supportive and flexible work environment that I've experienced in the last 15+ years.
