1. Who we are
The controller of your personal information is MAGHREB UK TALENT LTD (company number 16987132), trading as MUKTalent Healthcare, registered office Flat 3b Flitton House, The Sutton Estate, London, England, N1 1UG. Contact: agents@muktalent.com, +44 73 1187 4281. MUKTalent Healthcare acts as an employment agency when it introduces candidates to employers.
2. Information we collect
At registration we ask only for what we need to assess your profile: your name, email address, telephone number, country of residence, nationality (optional), healthcare profession, years of experience, professional registration status, English language level, current employment status, preferred UK location, your CV and any additional information you choose to give.
Later in the process, only when needed, your consultant may ask you to upload specific documents through the secure portal, for example qualification certificates, registration evidence, English test results, references, or identity and right-to-work documents requested by an employer. We do not ask for sensitive documents at registration.
Special category and criminal offence information. We do not ask for health information or criminal records. These checks, such as occupational health and DBS checks, are carried out by the employer. If you choose to tell us something sensitive, we will only use it where necessary, for example to make reasonable adjustments for an interview.
