Job Description
Education Recruitment Consultant
This isn't your average recruitment job.
At Teaching Personnel, we're looking for ambitious, driven individuals to join our Exeter team in a role that blends sales, recruitment, and education into something genuinely impactful.
As the UK's market-leading education recruitment agency, we don't just match educators to jobs - we drive business, build long-term partnerships with schools, and create opportunities that transform lives. This role is fast-paced, sales-targeted, and hands-on - and we need people who can thrive under pressure, deliver results, and build exceptional client relationships both in person and over the phone.
Whether you come from agency recruitment, B2B/B2C sales, or a high-performance target-led environment, if you're confident in a consultative sales role and hungry to succeed, we want to hear from you.
What You'll Need
✅ Full UK Driving Licence and access to your own vehicle - regular school visits (minimum once per week) are an essential part of the role fuel is reimbursed on the mile.
✅ Sales experience - ideally from agency recruitment, B2B, or B2C sales backgrounds but we will consider proven sales ability that is transferrable into this role.
✅ Target-driven mindset - you'll thrive in a high-performance culture and be motivated by hitting goals and making an impact.
✅ Resilience and tenacity - recruitment is challenging, so we need people who are proactive, solution-focused, and never afraid to pick up the phone and be present in person to meet your clients and build great lasting partnerships.
✅ People Centricity - you'll need to build rapport quickly, whether with a headteacher, senior stakeholder or newly qualified teachers across the education domain.
✅ Balance Reactivity with Proactivity - Knowing when to be reactive thinking fast on your feet to provide immediate solutions, equally be able to proactively provide long term strategies and solutions to the challenge you may encounter in the recruitment market.
