Ready to take your education recruitment experience in-house?

If you've built your career recruiting within the education sector, know the market inside out and are ready to step away from agency sales targets, this could be the perfect next move! I'm working with a leading education organisation looking to appoint a Talent Acquisition Partner to take ownership of recruitment across its UK operations. This is a fantastic opportunity to move into an in-house position where you can use your existing education recruitment knowledge, build long-term relationships and have a genuine impact on how an organisation attracts and retains talent.

The role:

• Lead end-to-end recruitment across a range of UK locations, building pipelines of teaching, support and office-based talent.
• Partner with senior stakeholders, Campus Principals and hiring managers to understand recruitment needs and develop effective hiring strategies.
• Proactively source and attract talent, building relationships with both active and passive candidates.
• Manage agency relationships and identify opportunities to strengthen direct recruitment.
• Drive employer branding, attraction campaigns and recruitment marketing initiatives.
• Attend careers fairs, networking events and industry conferences to promote the organisation.
• Provide market insight, salary guidance and recruitment advice to hiring managers.
• Continuously improve recruitment processes, candidate experience and onboarding.

What we're looking for:

This is the non-negotiable bit! You'll need demonstrable experience recruiting within the education sector, specifically recruiting teachers, Headteachers and wider education professionals. We're particularly interested in people currently working within education recruitment agencies who are ready to make the move in-house.

You'll also bring:

• Strong end-to-end recruitment and candidate sourcing experience.
• Confidence building relationships with senior stakeholders.
• Excellent knowledge of the education talent market.
• The ability to manage multiple vacancies and competing priorities.
• A proactive, commercially aware approach with great communication skills.
