Locum nursing jobs in South Africa

Relief and agency-free shifts for nurses registered with the South African Nursing Council — professional nurses, registered general nurses, staff nurses, enrolled nurses and auxiliary nurses.

How it works for locum nurses

  1. Set your own rate

    Your rate lives on your profile. Businesses see it when they search, and it is the rate that applies when they book you. LocumLink takes no cut and adds no mark-up.

  2. Add your location and availability

    Pin where you are willing to work and mark the dates you are free. Businesses search by distance, so you appear for work near you.

  3. Upload your SANC registration

    Your registration and qualification documents sit on your profile for businesses considering you to review.

  4. Accept the shifts you want

    Requests come to you. Decline anything that does not suit you — there is no obligation and no penalty.

Where locum nurses find work

  • Hospitals and day clinics
  • General practices and clinics
  • Occupational health services
  • Frail care and sub-acute facilities

Across all nine provinces — Gauteng, Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Free State, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North West and Northern Cape.

What it costs

Nothing to join, and no subscription. LocumLink charges no agency fees and takes no commission, so the rate you set is the rate you are paid. A traditional agency adds its margin on top of your rate, which makes you more expensive to book without putting anything in your pocket.

Registration and verification

You must be registered with the South African Nursing Council (SANC) to take locum nurse work through LocumLink.

LocumLink does not verify registrations. The business engaging you is responsible for confirming your registration and qualifications with SANC directly, as they would for any hire. Keeping your own registration current and in good standing remains your responsibility.
