Jobizo’s Rs. 12 Cr Funding Signals a New Era for Tech-Led Healthcare Staffing

In an industry where staffing shortages can directly impact patient care, Jobizo is emerging as a critical tech enabler—leveraging real-time AI-powered matching to solve healthcare hiring at scale. With its recent Rs. 12 crore Pre-Series A round, led by Inflection Point Ventures (IPV) and Alkemi Ventures, the company is poised to redefine healthcare HR for both Indian and global markets.

Redefining Healthcare Hiring: From Reactive to Predictive

Jobizo operates at the intersection of healthcare workforce flexibility and tech-driven optimisation. What sets the platform apart is its ability to match hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic centres with pre-verified healthcare professionals—on both a temporary (locum) and permanent basis—via an intelligent, AI-enabled matching engine.

With over 60,000 verified medical professionals, and 18,500+ temporary roles already facilitated, Jobizo is proving that scalable staffing in healthcare doesn’t need to be slow or complex. The platform is also tapping into international mobility, supporting over 1,000 overseas placements across 41+ countries like UAE, South Africa, Kenya, and Nepal.

Why This Matters: Timing, Tech & Talent

India’s healthcare ecosystem is undergoing tectonic shifts: post-pandemic demand surges, Tier II & III city hospital growth, and a renewed focus on quality human capital. Yet, legacy recruitment models remain slow, fragmented, and compliance-challenged.

Jobizo’s end-to-end digital approach—from skill mapping to placement—solves for all three:
Speed via AI job matching
Compliance through verified professional data
Reach with a pan-India and cross-border model

This funding infusion will accelerate investments in its tech stack, marketing engine, and operational footprint—especially in cities like Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, and several underpenetrated metros.

The Founders’ Edge: Deep Domain Experience

Jobizo is co-founded by Avishek Agarwal (CEO), a healthcare entrepreneur with 14+ years of experience and global recognition, and Naveen Trehan, a CA and serial entrepreneur with four exits under his belt. Their combined expertise gives Jobizo both operational agility and strategic foresight.

“Our focus is on bridging the global healthcare skills gap with flexible, meaningful jobs for professionals,” says Agarwal. “This round gives us the fuel to double down on tech and expand into new markets.”

Zooming Out: A Market with Explosive Potential

India’s healthcare staffing market is projected to grow to $6.38–$12.76 billion by 2030, while the global market is estimated to reach $62–$65 billion. The surge is driven by:

  • Ageing populations
  • Expansion of hospital infrastructure
  • Rise in medical tourism
  • Cross-border demand for skilled workers

Jobizo’s hybrid model—combining recruitment with career development and upskilling—makes it well-positioned to ride this wave.


What to Watch For: Platform Maturity & Global Ambitions

While the funding strengthens Jobizo’s domestic scale, the more interesting story is its international hiring playbook. As Western countries continue to experience acute healthcare labour shortages, India is becoming a natural talent exporter—and Jobizo aims to be the connective bridge.

Their next big leap?

  • Deepening tech automation in skill mapping
  • Launching in more Indian metros and tier-2 cities
  • Strategic partnerships with hospitals and governments overseas
