The expertise behind your NHS career transformation.
Founder & Principal Advisor
Deborah O. Akanne is the Founder and Principal Advisor at Sovereign Healthcare Advisory Group. She specialises in helping internationally trained healthcare professionals navigate the UK NHS recruitment landscape — from CV re-engineering in clinical governance language to full interview preparation and career strategy.
Her approach is built on a deep understanding of how NHS recruitment actually works — the TRAC system, automated shortlisting algorithms, person specification scoring, and what interview panels are genuinely looking for when they assess candidates.
Every client receives a bespoke service because every career situation is different. There are no templates, no generic advice, and no one-size-fits-all packages.
To ensure that internationally trained healthcare professionals are not held back by a system they don't fully understand. We decode the NHS recruitment process and give you the exact tools, language, and strategy to succeed.
Every document is mapped to specific criteria, keywords, and frameworks that NHS systems look for.
No two clients receive the same package. Your service is built around your specific gaps and goals.
Our goal is your confirmed NHS offer. We work with you until you get there.
