Overview
Are you a strategic, consultative sales professional with a passion for education and relationship-led business development? SupplyBank, part of the Supporting Education Group, is expanding its reach and we’re looking for a Partnership Manager to lead on driving our Managed Service Provision (MSP) solution into Multi Academy Trusts (MATs) and Multi School Groups (MSGs) across key UK regions. This opportunity covers the South West region, including Cornwall, Devon, Dorset and surrounding areas.
About us: SupplyBank is the MSP solution from Supporting Education Group, designed specifically for the education sector. Our mission is to help MATs and school groups take control of their supply staffing, reduce costs, improve quality, and gain visibility over recruitment activity. By centralising and streamlining how schools engage with supply staff and agencies, SupplyBank aims to reduce stress and inconsistency, offering a tech-enabled, people-first solution that brings transparency, cost-efficiency, and trusted partnerships into recruitment. As part of the largest education services group in the UK, we bring sector expertise, extensive school partnerships, and a shared ambition to make a positive impact in education. MATs benefit from a fully supported onboarding journey, a handpicked network of quality agencies, and ongoing insight to make smarter staffing decisions.

This role is ideal for someone who builds trust, uncovers client needs, and offers long-term value by streamlining supplier networks and improving outcomes for MATs.
