Why this role is perfect aspiring recruiter

You'll begin by supporting experienced recruiters — learning candidate sourcing, client communication, and everything in between. Once you're confident, you'll step into a full 360 recruitment role: speaking with schools, matching candidates, and building your own desk.

No recruitment or sales experience? No problem. Our top-tier training program and supportive team will guide you every step of the way.

This is a sales role where you'll be working towards revenue targets and KPIs. You'll need to be comfortable on the phone and confident in building relationships. Don't worry—we'll train you, as long as you have the drive and the will to succeed.

What your role could look like after the first few months:

  • Making introduction calls and building school relationships
  • Navigating our CRM system with ease
  • Responding to candidate and client queries
  • Sourcing, shortlisting, and placing education professionals
  • Contributing to team strategy and hitting individual targets and sales revenue goals

What you'll get in return:

  • The latest tech and marketing tools
  • Tailored training and a clear career progression path
  • 23 days holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off + charity days
  • Wellness package, including online doctor access and critical illness cover
  • Free mortgage consultations
  • Office dogs and an in-house bar for Friday socials
  • Big annual company events and regular team socials
  • Hybrid working (2–3 days WFH after probation)
  • Career development support from a team that genuinely cares
