About Graham Johnson

Founder of Vetting Hub. 18 years at the operational heart of UK employment screening and vetting.

My Years on the Front Line.

My name is Graham Johnson and I am the founder of Vetting Hub. I spent 18 years running National Vetting Solutions, a specialist employment screening and vetting company that I founded in 2006. During those 18 years I worked with clients across some of the most demanding regulated sectors in the UK including security, healthcare, financial services, education and government.

I saw forged passports submitted by candidates who had invested significant time and money making them look genuine. I identified manipulated employment histories crafted to hide gaps, dismissals and criminal convictions. I flagged identity fraud at the point of screening that would have placed genuinely unsuitable individuals into positions of significant trust. I trained my teams and our clients so they fully understodd every element and process full.

Over the many years I oversaw and audited hundreds of thousands of vetting files. I understood what regulators actually look for, what documentation needs to exist and what a genuinely defensible screening process looks like from the inside. I became a BS7858 Certified Trainer. That knowledge does not come from a classroom. It comes from doing the work, year after year, across a career built entirely inside this industry.

Why I Built Vetting Hub.

I launched Vetting Hub because I had seen what happens when organisations are left without the right knowledge at the wrong moment. A screening question arrives under time pressure.

There is nobody to call. The guidance documents are unclear. The decision gets made anyway and sometimes it goes wrong. Audit failures. Regulatory penalties. Tribunal claims. Unsuitable individuals placed into positions of trust. None of that is the result of bad intentions. It is the result of one thing only.

A lack of accessible, practical, expert knowledge exactly when it is needed. Vetting Hub exists to close that gap for every organisation in the UK, regardless of size or budget.
