Principal Recruitment Consultant – Education
Location: Nottingham (Our 9th Office!)
Milk Education is an independently owned, purpose‑led education recruitment agency that’s built differently. Our mission is to change the face of education recruitment while making a positive impact, powered by our very own charity, Make Life Kind 💛.
Over the last three years, we’ve successfully opened our London and Guildford offices; our Nottingham office has now been up and running for four months. In that short time we’ve already begun to make a big impact – building relationships, supporting schools, and firmly establishing ourselves in the city. With momentum growing fast, we’re now on the hunt for our 4th team member to join our expanding Nottingham squad.
The Role
We’re hiring a Principal Consultant to help launch and lead one of our desks in Nottingham across Primary, Secondary, or SEND. If your ambition is to move into management or leadership, we’ll support you every step of the way. This is education recruitment, so being an early riser is key! You’ll be in the office for a 7:15am start during term time (when schools are open), with a later 9am start during school holidays.
Responsibilities
* Manage your own 360 desk
* Build and maintain strong client and candidate relationships
* Drive business development and market growth
* Place amazing candidates in roles where they thrive
* Contribute to the culture and success of a brand‑new office
What You’ll Get
* Transparent career progression
* Birthday and charity days off
* 2 monthly Empowering Days (WFH) – growing to 3!
* Access to best‑in‑class recruitment tech
* Early finish Fridays and reduced hours when schools are closed
* Two huge company‑wide events each year + regular team socials
