Built By Locums,
For Locums
At MFL, we believe that locums are the missing puzzle piece in a veterinary practice's journey. This is because we can step in when someone needs to step out, which can happen for a whole host of reasons - holiday, illness, maternity/paternity, or a recruitment gap, to name but a few!
​
However, whilst it should be straight forward, historically connecting locums and practices has been challenging - well until now that is! On the MFL platform, you log in and boom, there’s a whole map of locum shifts across the UK just waiting for you. You can then book a shift right there and then, chat with the practice, manage your calendar, track your expenses, and so much more.
We're proud to have built an all inclusive platform, to support the amazing work locums are doing in looking after the nation's animals.

Why are locum banks important?
A Locum Bank is a curated pool of locum professionals that a veterinary practice can rely on for temporary staffing needs. Unlike traditional recruitment methods, a locum bank provides a ready-to-use network of vetted and trusted professionals who are familiar with the practice's specific needs, culture, and processes.
