The Numbers

The case for having an agent
is in the data

PAs who work with a dedicated agent earn more, spend less time searching, and land positions faster than those who go it alone. Here's a snapshot of what the data shows.

About Us

Your Career.
Our Team. Your Terms.

Season One Healthcare was built around a simple belief: every Physician Assistant deserves a dedicated team working in their corner — not a job board, not a recruiter working for the facility, but a team working entirely for them.

Our Story

Built to Represent You

The PA job market is full of job boards, generic recruiters, and platforms built to serve facilities — not clinicians. PAs spend dozens of hours searching, applying, and negotiating alone, while the facilities they're applying to have HR departments, compensation consultants, and legal teams working on their side.

Season One Healthcare was founded to change that dynamic. Our agents work on your behalf — sourcing opportunities, vetting facilities, and identifying the highest-paying contracts and direct hire positions available across the United States so you don't have to go looking for them.

The name reflects where we are: this is our first season. We're building something deliberately, one PA and one placement at a time, with a commitment to always keeping our service free for the clinicians we represent.

We Work For You

Our team answers to you, not the facility. Your goals, your preferences, your terms drive everything we do.

Quality Over Volume

We don't flood your inbox. Every opportunity is curated and relevant before it reaches you.

Free, Always

Active PAs and PA students never pay — not now, not at placement, not ever. Our fee comes from the facility.

Long-Term Relationship

We're in your corner from PA school through the peak of your career. One team, your whole career.

"Every top performer in every field has someone in their corner working the market on their behalf. Our job is to be that person for every PA in the country."

How Our Team Works For You

01

Market Intelligence

Our team tracks compensation trends, facility needs, and contract premiums across the United States — so you know what you should be earning.

02

Active Sourcing

We don't wait for postings. We proactively reach out to facilities on your behalf to surface opportunities before they hit the open market.

03

Direct Introduction

When you're interested, we make the introduction and support you through the offer process — on your terms.

Facilities We Source From

We know where
the best opportunities are

Our agents focus on facility types that offer strong compensation, broad PA scope, and meaningful clinical work.

01

Critical Access Hospitals

Rural CAHs frequently offer premium compensation packages to attract qualified PAs. Our team knows which facilities are actively recruiting and what they're willing to pay.

02

Federally Qualified Health Centers

FQHCs offer competitive salaries, NHSC loan repayment eligibility, and broad clinical scope. Our agents identify mission-aligned opportunities that also pay well.

03

Rural Health Clinics

RHCs operate in designated shortage areas and frequently offer recruitment bonuses and above-market salaries to fill urgent PA needs. Our team surfaces these before they're widely posted.

04

Tribal Health Programs

Tribally-operated programs offer unique practice environments, strong compensation, and loan repayment programs. Our team approaches these partnerships with care and respect for the communities involved.

05

Locum & Contract Positions

High-paying locum contracts are often the fastest path to top PA compensation. Our team actively sources short-term and long-term contract opportunities across all specialties and regions.
