About Florence
Florence was founded in 2016 by Dr. Charles Armitage, an NHS doctor who experienced the staffing crisis firsthand, and Dan Blake, a former British Army officer. They were frustrated by how inefficient agencies were at filling shifts with the right people - Charles was constantly hounded with calls to go to different places while his agency still failed to approve timesheets or issue wages. They teamed up to create Florence: a platform designed to make healthcare staffing simpler, fairer, and more transparent for everyone.
Today, Florence has evolved from a simple shift marketplace into a comprehensive workforce management platform serving health and care organisations across the UK, France, and Canada. Having filled over 1 million shifts, the company now offers tools for scheduling, HR, agency management, and professional development through Florence Academy. Their mission remains unchanged: to take the chaos out of care staffing by giving control back to care professionals and organisations, one shift at a time.
