About us:
Our mission is to change the world of education recruitment. Schools spend over £2bn a year on agency staff, with over £600m per year of that spent on fees that go straight to the recruitment agencies. So far, we've saved UK schools over £30m in supply teaching recruitment costs, and that number grows every day, meaning the funding can be put back into education within the schools.
Using our online platform, schools have access to hundreds of profiles of fully vetted teachers and support staff, who they can book at a click of a button. Think Uber for teachers.
We're expanding, reaching out to numerous schools to lend our support! With offices inLondon,Bristol,Manchester, Turo, Nottingham, Liverpool, Exeter andCardiff,if you're keen on a role in any of these other locations, we'd love to hear from you!
