Class Act Teaching Services is a leading education recruitment agency with 25 years of success and ambitious growth plans. We are looking for a Recruitment Account Manager to join our growing team and take ownership of a busy, high-demand education desk.

This is an opportunity to build long-term partnerships with schools, support education professionals in their careers, and make a genuine impact — all within a supportive and rewarding environment.

  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • Excellent organisation and the ability to manage multiple priorities
  • A resilient, solutions-focused mindset
  • Commercial awareness and a results-driven approach
  • A genuine passion for helping people and making a difference

 

What You’ll Get
  • Salary of £27,000 – £33,000 depending on experience
  • 5% annual bonus opportunity
  • Established client relationships plus scope to grow new business
