About Us

We are a well established education recruitment company dedicated to connecting schools with outstanding teaching and support staff. Our success comes from building long-lasting relationships and providing a personal, professional service. We’re now looking for a Trainee Recruitment Consultant to join our team — someone with drive, resilience, and the hunger to succeed, even if they don’t yet have direct recruitment experience.

The Role
As a Trainee Recruitment Consultant, you’ll be given full training and support to develop your career in recruitment. You’ll be working in a fast-paced environment, learning how to build relationships with schools, source and interview candidates, and match the right people to the right roles.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Build and maintain strong relationships with schools, candidates, and colleagues.
  • Proactively source, screen, and interview candidates for a variety of education roles.
  • Develop a strong understanding of client needs to provide a tailored recruitment service.
  • Manage job adverts, candidate databases, and recruitment processes effectively.
  • Work towards targets and KPIs with a proactive, solutions-focused approach.
  • Deliver excellent customer service to both candidates and clients.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Tenacious, hardworking, and motivated to succeed in a target-driven environment.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Resilient, adaptable, and able to thrive under pressure.
  • Ambitious and eager to build a long-term career in recruitment.
  • Previous sales, customer service, or education experience is desirable but not essential — full training will be provided.

What We Offer:

  • Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development.
  • Competitive starting salary with additional commission structure.
  • Clear progression routes and career opportunities.
  • Supportive team culture with regular incentives and rewards.
  • Company Events
  • Shorter working hours during school holidays (9am to 2pm)
  • The opportunity to build a meaningful career helping schools and education professionals.

As well as many other perks and benefits!
