Caribbean healthcare, with heart.

Emma Westwood

Nursing & Healthcare, and Construction & Property · Caribbean

A Caribbean specialist who has spent her career placing clinical talent across the islands, and who now also runs the Caribbean construction and property desk alongside James Griffin. Knows the registration and relocation hurdles inside out.

In Emma's words
“Placing a nurse isn't a transaction. It's a family deciding to move across an ocean. I treat it like exactly that, every time.”
