About Optima Health
Optima Health provides occupational health and wellbeing services to public and private sector organisations across the UK and Ireland. Based in Sheffield, its heritage dates to 1947, when it began caring for postal workers. Services include health surveillance, pre-placement and fitness-for-work assessments, mental health support, musculoskeletal care and strategic health consultancy.
The group employs more than 1,250 clinicians and works through a network of over 50 occupational health clinics, client sites, mobile units and digital services. Its clients include NHS organisations, emergency services, government and industries such as energy, manufacturing, construction, rail and finance. Clinical teams help employers manage health risks, support attendance and assist people returning to work.
Development across the business
Optima’s development framework uses appraisals, competency assessments and tailored career plans. The 2026 annual report states that all employees received an annual appraisal and some training or CPD during the year. Its Clinical Training Academy adds induction, modular learning and mentoring for clinicians.
