Company Background
Geneva Health International is a leader in its field and has a wide variety of major staff supply contracts, within Australia, New Zealand, UK and overseas. It has extensive experience in meeting the needs of a significant number of large and small organisations and prides itself on developing customised solutions for individual clients.
Originating in 1972 as Lampen Associates, the Company specialised in construction and engineering recruitment and later expanding to accounting, sales and office support staff. In 1997, it was apparent that there was a need for temporary and permanent health professionals in the public and private health sectors, and Josephine Wallis was employed from the health sector to set up Lampen Healthstaff in Auckland.
Since then the Company has been growing at both national and international levels. February 1999 saw the opening of the Wellington office, August 1999 the London office was opened and in August 2000 both Melbourne and Sydney offices were opened. In January 2000, Lampen Healthstaff acquired Medstaff International, another medical recruitment company.
On February 7, 2000 both companies changed their name to Geneva Health International, becoming the largest supplier of temporary and permanent health professionals in New Zealand.
The company employs over 70 staff in total, and recruits across the whole spectrum of occupational groups including medical, nursing, clinical support and non-clinical support roles as well as clinical management and senior management positions. The team is highly professional and widely experienced with extensive employment experience within the current healthcare environment. With five global offices and operations in the United Kingdom, America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand we are able to focus entirely on recruiting health professionals for organisations in New Zealand and abroad.
Our group is totally committed to being at the leading edge of health employment practice. Geneva Health International is an active member of the New Zealand Institute of Health Management and the Australian Health Service Executives. Our staff regularly attend the association's seminars and annual conferences, ensuring we keep up to date with health industry changes.
As a member of the Recruitment and Consulting Services Association (RCSA) we ensure service and professional standards are to the highest level possible. Roger Lampen is a Fellow of this Association and is a former International Vice President of CIETT; the international temporary staffing services association.
