What We’re Looking For
Proven experience in education recruitment OR
Demonstrable experience selling directly into schools

Central Manchester office with excellent amenities and transport links

This is an opportunity to join a specialist consultancy with a strong identity, clear growth plans and a reputation for quality.
If you are a high-performing recruiter ready for your next challenge, we would love to speak with you.
