Join the Leading Team in Education Recruitment

About Us
At Teaching Personnel, part of Supporting Education Group, we're passionate about making a difference in education. As a market leader in the sector, we specialise in connecting exceptional educators with schools and students who need them most. With a strong commitment to growth, innovation, and excellence, we empower our teams to deliver outstanding results, ensuring positive outcomes for schools, educators, and pupils alike.

Supporting Education Group

  • Equipping educators with the skills, support and opportunities they need to teach effectively.
  • Helping schools deliver the best possible experience for their students.
  • Giving parents the right tools to help their children learn.

Supporting Education Group brings together services that support every aspect of a child's journey through school and beyond. We build bright futures through expert support, inspiring staff and cutting-edge technology.
People are at the heart of what we do. It's our aim to create an environment and employee experience, which inspires and encourages our people to do their best work.

About the Role
We are seeking a dynamic and experienced Operations Manager to lead and manage our branches across the Dorset, Sussex, and Kent region. This is a pivotal role, where you will oversee performance, ensure high-quality service delivery, and drive regional growth. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading multi-branch operations across at least two sectors (primary, secondary, SEN).
  • Driving business growth by meeting targets and fostering strong client relationships.
  • Mentoring and developing Branch Managers and their teams to deliver exceptional results.
  • Strategically planning for sustainable growth and innovation in line with company goals.
  • Championing safeguarding and ensuring compliance with all relevant policies and regulations.

This role offers an opportunity to make a significant impact on the education recruitment landscape while being an integral part of our Senior Operations Team.

You will spend 3 days per week in the Southampton office to help build and shape the future growth for one of Teaching Personnel's key hubs in the South.

About You
We're looking for an inspiring leader with a proven track record in management and business growth, ideally within recruitment or a related sector. The ideal candidate will have:

  • Strong leadership and coaching skills, with experience managing high-performing teams.
  • Excellent commercial acumen and financial planning abilities.
  • Advanced interpersonal and strategic influencing skills to build relationships with key stakeholders.
  • A proactive, innovative approach with the ability to balance multiple priorities effectively.
  • A passion for education and the ability to align with our values of equity, diversity, and inclusion.
  • While experience in the education sector is desirable, it is not essential.

What We Offer
At Teaching Personnel, we believe in rewarding hard work and commitment. As an Operations Manager, you will benefit from:

  • A competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
  • Opportunities for career progression within a supportive, collaborative environment.
  • Comprehensive training and professional development programs.
  • 28 days holiday and get an extra day for each year you stay with us, up to max 33 days PLUS bank holidays.
  • We pay for a Healthcare Plan once you've passed probation, which includes access to a private GP.
  • From day 1, free life insurance covering up to x4 your salary.
  • We'll both add money into your pension pot after 3 months.
  • Get 25% off online learning resources for year 1 to GCSE with EdPlace.
  • Choose what flexible benefits you want after you've passed probation - this could be buying extra holiday, dental, topping up your healthcare plan, bikes, gym membership, electric cars and give as you earn.
