About the Company
We are a fast-growing UK education recruitment agency supplying teachers and education support staff to UK schools. Operating in a highly competitive, fast-moving market, we focus on speed, quality, and strong candidate relationships, supported by robust systems and technology. Our consultants manage multiple live vacancies at any given time and are supported by tech, job boards, and structured processes — but success ultimately comes down to drive, activity, and execution.
The Role
As an Education Recruitment Consultant, you will manage the full recruitment lifecycle for UK education roles, placing teachers and support staff into long-term and permanent positions. This is a performance-driven role with uncapped commission and clear earning potential for consultants who move quickly, follow up consistently, and build strong candidate pipelines.
