Job description

Recruitment Consultant - Education Sector

Swindon 27,000 - 32,000 + Uncapped Commission

Shape futures - including your own.

Are you a driven recruiter ready to take the next big step in your career?
Whether you're already experienced in Education recruitment or you're thriving in another fast-paced temp sector (Industrial, Construction, Catering, etc.) and ready for a fresh challenge - this is your chance to move into one of the UK's fastest-growing and most rewarding industries.

Why Academics?

We're not just another agency. Academics is one of the UK's most established education recruitment specialists, supporting over 1,000 Primary and Secondary schools every day. Our success is built on relationships, results, and a culture that values people - not just numbers.

Due to continued growth, we're expanding our Swindon office and looking for a Recruitment Consultant who wants to make a genuine difference while building a long-term career.

What\'ll Do

As an Education Recruitment Consultant, you'll play a key role connecting passionate educators with inspiring schools. Day to day, you'll:

• Build and nurture relationships with Primary and/or Secondary schools
• Source, interview, and place talented teachers and support staff
• Manage candidate pipelines and advertise job roles creatively
• Grow client accounts through outstanding service and trust
• Negotiate contracts and provide ongoing support to clients and candidates

What We\'re Looking For

• Proven experience in recruitment or B2B sales
• A self-starter who thrives on success and takes pride in doing things right
• Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills
• Experience in a temp or high-volume recruitment environment (ideal, not essential)
• A genuine passion for people and for helping schools find their perfect match

What You\'ll Get

• No micromanagement or meaningless KPIs - we focus on quality and results
• Uncapped commission - the harder you work, the more you earn
• Ongoing training and development to help you thrive
• Career progression opportunities in a national, growing business
• A positive, supportive culture with one of the lowest staff turnover rates in the industry
