Education Recruitment Consultant
Recruitment has a problem.
Most consultants are underperforming — not because of ability, but because of the environment they’re in.
Let’s be honest
Most recruitment roles look the same.
You’re told to:
· Build relationships
· Win business
· Hit targets
But behind that, you’re also:
· Writing your own adverts
· Managing compliance
· Chasing onboarding
· Handling admin
· Fixing broken processes
And then being judged on performance.
It doesn’t add up.
So we built something different
At Milestone Education, we stripped recruitment back to what actually drives results.
- Sales
- Relationships
- Delivery
Everything else? We built a system around you to handle it.
What this role actually is
As a Education Recruitment Consultant, you will be assigned an specialism, Primary, Secondary or SEND, from there your job is simple:
- Build relationships with schools
- Attract strong candidates
- Convert opportunities into placements
You will inherit some opportunity — and be expected to turn it into consistent revenue.
No distractions. No unnecessary noise.
Just performance.
The market – Education
Education is not about speed. It’s about trust.
Schools don’t just work with anyone — they work with people they trust to deliver consistently.
This is a market for individuals who:
· Can win people over
· Build long-term relationships
· Deliver quality repeatedly
· Understand that matching matters
If you’re good at building relationships and maintaining them, this is a market that rewards you.
Here’s the difference
In most recruitment businesses, high performers are slowed down by the role itself.
At Milestone, we’ve removed that.
You will be supported by a dedicated operations team who:
· Write your adverts
· Build your candidate profiles
· Manage compliance and onboarding
· Deliver marketing campaigns
· Generate leads
· Provide performance data and insight
While others are stuck doing everything — you’re focused on:
- Selling
- Building relationships
- Generating revenue
What this means for you
More time doing what actually drives results.
Which leads to:
· Higher output
· Better conversion
· Stronger earnings
What success looks like
· Winning new business
· Building strong client relationships
· Consistently placing candidates
· Creating multiple revenue streams
Across:
· Daily supply
· Long-term placements
· Permanent placements
Who this works for
This works for people who:
· Are frustrated with inefficiency in their current role
· Know they could be earning more
· Want to focus on performance, not admin
· Are driven by results and outcomes
Requirements
· 18+ months in temp recruitment
or
· 3+ years in high-volume sales
· Driving licence required
Earnings
· £27,500 – £35,000 base salary
· Uncapped commission
· Typical additional earnings: £10,000 – £70,000+
· Top performers exceeding this
Many of our consultants are now earning significantly more than they did previously.

The reality
Recruitment doesn’t need to be as hard as most businesses make it.
But it does need the right environment.
If you’re capable of more — and want the structure to prove it — this is where you do it.
