 Jayne Fitzhenry

CEO

I founded the company back in 2011 when myself and my business partner at the time felt that bigger recruitment agencies were so focused on Secondary Care, yet there was a big change happening in Primary Care with increased access to services outside of the normal core hours. We quickly found ourselves supplying into a variety of settings & within the first year, we had a team of 7 people & Coben was officially born!

Due to such quick growth, we made a decision in 2014 that we needed help taking the business to the next level & that is where Nina my trusty business partner & long-time friend came along, and the rest is history.

Nina Adamski

Managing Director

I fell into healthcare recruitment back in 2004 when I worked for a large corporate company as a manager, then operations manager for 10 years. I then spent a year working for an accountancy firm working with the NHS implementing systems that helped with efficiencies and spend. This allowed me a real insight into NHS trusts across the country, their challenges and what they needed ensure their temporary staffing models were fit for purpose.

I was then approached by my long standing friend and now business partner Jayne to come on board Coben back in 2014 and the rest, they say is history.

Running a healthcare recruitment business is both immensely stressful yet satisfying, but we are lucky that we have a strong, passionate team.

Kevin Green

Operations Manager

I have been in healthcare recruitment since May 2000 and started my career in secondary care working with consultants across major UK contracts. After 17 successful years in secondary care I had the opportunity to join Coben in 2017 and an opportunity to learn more about Primary care and to drive growth of  a new area for the business.

I started as Lead Consultant for the Midlands team, progressing to Team Manager in 2018 whilst continuing to bill with team. I became Operations Manager at the turn of 2021  and am currently focused on driving business growth, refining our internal processes and looking to expand our already passionate, driven and dedicated sales team. I believe success is built on hard work, consistency, integrity and transparency that should be reflected in everything we do across the business.

As the Risk and Compliance Manager at Coben Healthcare, I lead a dedicated compliance team, working together to ensure that both our clients and healthcare professionals are supported in meeting all regulatory standards. Our team collaborates harmoniously to mitigate risks, uphold ethical practices, and ensure compliance in every aspect of onboarding our Healthcare Professionals for work.

Outside of work, I’m a proud football mum to two active sons, spending much of my time on the sidelines cheering them on. I also have a mischievous, lovable, and very needy cockapoo named Lola who keeps me on my toes. I love spending my spare time baking up delicious treats, enjoying long walks with my husband and Lola, and catching up with friends over a few cocktails. I also have a passion for holidays abroad, always looking forward to the next adventure!
