Are you an experienced Education Recruitment Consultant who knows you could bill more with the right platform?

Have you built a successful desk but now want the autonomy to genuinely make it your own?

Want to earn serious commission AND have the opportunity to build a team around you?

We're looking for an experienced Senior Education Recruitment Consultant to join our Manchester HQ and take ownership of a full 360 education recruitment desk.

You'll have the freedom to recruit across daily supply, long-term and permanent education staffing, developing your own school and Multi-Academy Trust relationships while building a profitable candidate network.

And we're not hiring someone just to sit on a desk forever.

We want someone capable of building a business within our business.

Prove yourself, grow your numbers and you'll have the opportunity to hire, develop and lead your own team of consultants from our Manchester HQ.

What's in it for you?
  • Basic salary up to £50,000, depending on experience and track record

Most importantly, you'll be commercially hungry.

We want someone who enjoys picking up the phone, enjoys winning business and gets a buzz from turning a cold school into a long-term client.

Why KPI Education?

We're ambitious about where we're going.

We're expanding our national education footprint and want experienced recruiters at the heart of that growth.
