Join one of the UK's leading education recruitment agencies - and be part of something meaningful.

We're expanding our Doncaster 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.
