Since 2004

Staffing Nursing and Allied Rock Stars Across the Nation

Our History

Founded in 2004 in a small 10×10 executive suite in Seattle, our journey began with a clear vision: to redefine the healthcare staffing industry through a distinctive, innovative, and personalized approach. This commitment has led to significant industry recognitions and awards, affirming our position as a leader in the travel nursing industry.

Our accolades, combined with consistent and positive reviews from our travel healthcare professionals, reflect our dedication to building lasting relationships and providing staffing solutions that truly cater to the individual needs of our candidates and clients. This success is rooted in personal engagement and a firm commitment to prioritizing these needs, with a promise to always put others first.

Our story began with our first booked shift on Christmas Day in 2004. Today, we proudly rank as one of the top Travel Nursing companies in the nation. These honors are a testament to our enduring ethos of consistently going the extra mile to ensure exceptional service in everything we do, every single day.

What Drives Us

Our Mission

What drives us at Axis is an unwavering commitment to our healthcare professionals, a pledge that’s rooted in our entrepreneurial drive and spirit. We stand firm on our integrity by striving for excellence and keeping an engaged traveling community. Our mission is clear: to elevate healthcare staffing through bold action, steadfast accountability and always prioritizing those we serve. 



Genuine
Partnership

At Axis, you’re more than just a number; you’re a valued member of our team. We view our travel nurses not just as professionals, but as partners in a shared mission. 



Quality Over
Quantity

While we pride ourselves on offering positions throughout the nation, we prioritize the quality of each placement. 



Unwavering
Support

Our team offers continuous support, guidance, and resources to help you navigate the challenges and benefits of travel nursing.



Transparent
Communication

With Axis, expect open, honest, and transparent communication every step of the way. No hidden agendas, just a dedicated team working tirelessly for your success.

We don’t do average

Rock Star Values

BE EXTRAORDINARY
BE BOLD BE ACCOUNTABLE
DO THE RIGHT THING
DO IT FOR THE FANS
FOUNDER MENTALITY
UNITED AND UNIQUE

Sometimes it’s easier to describe ourselves as what we’re not.

We’re not your average corporate “big box” staffing company. We’re not sleazy business people in bad suits pushing around resumes, lying or overselling positions. We’re not a tiny, inexperienced company either, we have the same amount of nationwide positions as those giant, corporate staffing companies. We’ve been placing top talent in adventurous careers since 2004 and we can prove we’re different from the rest. You’ll notice the laid back culture, but there’s more.

We don’t like wasting time.

Whether you’re a Rock Star Healthcare Professional or a Client in search of exceptional talent, we won’t waste your time. Applying for travel gigs with us is straightforward, and reaching out is easy. No gimmicks, just effective communication. We’re personable, real people working for you. When we ditched the suits in our office, we also ditched the 20-page applications and massive upfront skills checklists that you’ve been wasting your time filling out. Join our team and discover the Axis difference.

format_quoteHave had a great experience working with Axis so far. My recruiter has been incredibly supportive, and all the staff I’ve interacted with are also stellar. Travel nursing can feel really isolating and Axis works really hard to help you feel more at ease.

format_quoteThis has been the only travel company I have worked for, frankly I see no reason to change. The pay/benefits are competitive. I have a great recruiter who keeps in contact with me. Any issues I have had, were minor and addressed quickly and resolved. I have never come across anyone who was rude or uncaring. Judging some of the issues I have seen from other travel nurses with different companies, I am EXTREMELY happy with Axis. 🙂
