At Teaching Personnel, we're looking for ambitious, driven individuals to join our Cornwall 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.

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 per mile.
* ✅ Sales experience – ideally from agency recruitment, B2B, or B2C sales backgrounds but we will consider proven sales ability that is transferable 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; we need people who are proactive, solution‑focused, and never afraid to pick up the phone and be present in person to meet clients and build 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 – know when to be reactive and think fast on your feet to provide immediate solutions, while also proactively delivering long‑term strategies and solutions.
