The Role
You keep the desk moving. You support consultants by handling the daily admin and keeping candidates responsive, informed, and ready for work in schools. You manage high volumes, tight deadlines, and constant changes, because education recruitment runs on urgency and organisation.

The business positions itself around attracting, developing, engaging, retaining, and deploying early-career talent into schools, local authorities, and multi academy trusts, offering a managed recruitment service and access to training, including safeguarding and duty of care e-learning. It operates from Westbourne Manor in Edgbaston, Birmingham, and supports both candidates looking to gain school experience and schools looking for graduate staffing solutions.
