• Conduct regular client visits to strengthen relationships and understand their recruitment needs.
• Source, screen, and interview candidates to match school requirements.
• Meet and exceed sales targets, ensuring growth for both new and existing business.
• Deliver exceptional customer service to clients and candidates alike.
• Maintain a strong knowledge of the education sector and recruitment best practices.

• Ability to manage a fast-paced, full 360 recruitment process.
• Strong sales and business development skills.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities.
• Target-driven, with a passion for achieving and exceeding goals.
• Motivated, proactive, and able to work independently as well as part of a team.
• A full, clean driving license (for client visits).
What We Offer:

• A supportive and friendly work environment with a high-performing team.
• Exciting opportunities for career progression.
