Recruitment Consultant – Education
Hot Desk | High Earnings | Reed Education, Reading
This is not a "build from scratch" role — this is a genuinely hot desk.
Reed Education is hiring a Recruitment Consultant to take over a busy, high-billing Primary Schools desk in Reading, packed with live clients, warm relationships, and a consistent flow of vacancies. In the right hands, this desk delivers £6k per week and more.
Why This Role Stands Out
*Immediate access to active school clients and candidates
*Heavy account management focus (80%), supported by ongoing demand
*20% new business development to grow your patch and earnings
*Fast-paced, people-driven role with high visibility and impact
*Big rewards for consultants who can manage volume and deliver quality
The Package
*£27,500 – £38,000 base salary
*Uncapped bonus – performance directly rewarded
*Reduced summer hours (because schools shut — recruitment benefits!)
*Hybrid working – one day remote
*Paid sabbaticals & electric car lease scheme
*Clear, achievable progression in a proven billing environment
The Environment
You’ll work from a busy, energetic office in Reading town centre, surrounded by experienced consultants who enjoy success and support one another. Reed combines the stability of a market leader with the culture of a family-run business that genuinely invests in talent.
About You
*Background in recruitment, sales, or account management
*Comfortable managing multiple clients and candidate processes
*Resilient, organised, commercially driven
*Motivated by results, earnings, and career progression
If you want a desk where the hard work is already paying off — and where your earning potential is uncapped — this role delivers.
