Recruitment Consultant - Education Sector
Birmingham
£27,000 - £32,000 basic + uncapped commission

Looking for your next step in recruitment? Or ready to switch sectors and find more purpose in your work?
Join one of the UK's leading education recruitment agencies - and be part of something meaningful.

We're expanding our Birmingham office and are looking for a driven, confident Recruitment Consultant to join our growing team. Whether you're already working in Education recruitment, or come from a high-volume temp background (like Industrial, Catering or Construction), we'd love to hear from you - we offer full cross-sector training.

Why join Academics?

Every day, our nationwide teams provide teachers, teaching assistants, and support staff to over 1,000 Primary and Secondary schools. With demand for high-quality education staff growing rapidly, now is the perfect time to join our team.

We've built one of the strongest brands in the sector, giving you a solid platform to succeed, backed by an experienced leadership team and a supportive culture.

What you'll be doing:

Developing strong relationships with new and existing schools
Sourcing, interviewing, and placing education professionals
Writing job adverts and managing candidate pipelines
Arranging interviews and managing placements
Negotiating contracts and delivering exceptional service to both clients and candidates

What we're looking for:

Experience in recruitment or B2B sales (education sector experience is a bonus, but not essential)
Great relationship-building skills and commercial awareness
A proactive, driven, and resilient mindset
Someone who thrives in a fast-paced, people-focused environment

What you'll get:

A competitive base salary (£27k-32k DOE)
Uncapped commission
Full training and career development support
A friendly, supportive culture - no rigid KPIs or micromanagement
A stable company with one of the lowest staff turnover rates in recruitment

We pride ourselves on quality, transparency, and integrity - all schools and candidates are met face-to-face, and our safeguarding record is second to none.

Ready to take the next step?
Send your CV or get in touch with Craig Walker for a confidential chat - he's happy to tell you more about the role and what makes Academics a great place to work.

Salary will be determined by the successful candidate's qualifications and relevant experience, and will be in accordance with the client's pay policy.
