types of audiology jobs
we can help you find (and land).
Private audiology in the UK really splits into two ways of working: clinic-based and domiciliary. Each suits different temperaments, lifestyles and earning preferences. most roles are available full-time, part-time, or as a four-day week.
clinic-based roles
We recruit for clinic-based hearing aid dispensers across high-street brands, regional groups and independent practices.
That means we're often able to compare different setups in your area — different commission structures, different appointment lengths, different team sizes — rather than putting you forward for whatever's open this week.
-
Independents that protect longer appointment times and reward clinical depth
-
Regional groups in growth phases (often the strongest commission ceilings)
-
High-street brands that have meaningfully shifted toward base-pay-led packages in 2026
domiciliary & mobile roles
Domiciliary (home-visit) and mobile roles are as popular as ever, and we work with most of the major providers running home-visit and multi-clinic patches across the UK.
We'll be straight with you about which patches are realistically achievable, what the typical caseload looks like, and how sales and patient orientated the opportunity is.
-
Pure domiciliary roles with established patches
-
Hybrid patches mixing home visits with clinic days
-
Multi-clinic regional roles (typically two to four sites)
We regularly support private hearing aid audiologists find permanent full-time, part-time, four-day-week, school-hours, and no-weekend rotas. Tell us what works for your life and we'll work from there.

where we work: audiology roles across the UK.
We recruit for hearing care providers across the UK, from high-street brands in major cities to independent clinics in quieter towns and domiciliary patches in semi-rural areas.

Opportunities across each of these countries.
Some of the strongest roles we place are in semi-rural and coastal patches that rarely advertise widely — if you're planning to relocate or open up to a domiciliary patch, tell us where you are and we'll work backwards from there.
understanding hearing aid dispenser salaries.
There's no single "going rate" in private audiology. On-target earnings (OTE) in 2026 - which is base salary plus bonuses and commission - are shaped most by location, then by the type of setting you're in, the commission structure on offer, and your level of clinical and sales experience.
The OTE figures below are a rough guide to what we're seeing across the private hearing care sector — useful as a starting point, not a benchmark to hold any one role to.
newly qualified
base £30k–£38k → OTE £38k–£48k
In year one, commission contributes modestly while you're still building speed and conversion. £6k–£10k on top of base is typical. By the end of year two, this group usually transitions into the experienced band's earnings.
experienced (3-8 yrs)
base £40k–£52k → OTE £55k–£75k
Strong base in 2026, with OTE often £55k–£75k once commission and quarterly bonuses are added.
senior & high performers
OTE £75k–£100k+
Domiciliary specialists typically see a higher base salary, and top-performing private clinic dispensers regularly clear £80k–£100k+ OTE (depending on location).
what's shifting the market in 2026?
Bigger base, leaner commission: more employers are pulling earnings into base pay to stabilise income.
Independents are paying up: to compete with high-street brands on salary and autonomy.
Domiciliary premium: home-visit roles often pay base salaries above clinic equivalents.
NHS leavers in demand: once HCPC registered, band 5 and 6 level audiologists are being actively recruited into private settings.

what working with talentshed actually looks like.
1/ a specialism,
not a sideline.
Private audiology isn't one of many sectors we dabble in — it's the only one other than optical industry. That focus means we know who's hiring quietly, which independents are genuinely growing, and where progression is on offer versus where it's just words on a job ad. You're dealing with someone who speaks your language, not a generalist with a database.
2/ matched properly,
not marketed widely.
Your CV doesn't move anywhere without your say-so. Rather than putting you forward for anything that loosely matches the job title, we take the time to understand what you're actually after — the right clinical setup, the right team, the right pace of work. One good fit will always beat five lukewarm ones.
3/ we don't disappear after the offer letter.
Recruitment shouldn't end at the signature. We help with counter-offer conversations, resignation wording, the first-week settle-in, and the longer-term career planning that comes months later. As members of APSCo (Association of Professional Staffing Companies), we operate to a recognised professional standards framework — a formal way of saying we take our job very seriously.
how we support audiologists.
1.
we take the stress out of your job search - you talk, we listen, then we act.
Tell us what you're looking for – not just the hours, salary, and location - but the the culture, the kind of place you want to work, and the future you want for yourself.
Once we’ve got that, we’ll get to work behind the scenes (not only matching you with roles and handling all the back and forth) but working with our industry connections to make your vision a reality.
2.
we help you find exclusive roles - that you won't find anywhere else.
Many of the professionals we support end up landing roles that aren’t even advertised. We don’t just slot you into an open role – we shape opportunities around you. We help create opportunities that didn’t exist until we introduced you and what you're looking for. It means your next job could be one that’s actually been crafted with you in mind.
3.
we don't just help you find a job, we help you land it too.
Like we said - we take the time to get to know you and what sets you apart. Then, we go beyond simply putting your CV forward. We actively advocate for you with employers, showcasing your experience and the value you can bring to their team.
4.
we genuinely care about you.
It’s said a lot, but we really mean it – you're never just another candidate to us. We take the time to understand your situation, your goals, and what feels right for you – not just what ticks a box on paper.
