Working for Education World since 2008, I am now proud to hold the role of managing director with what has established itself as a well-respected brand in education recruitment. Our fantastic team of consultants and back office support share my principals of long-lasting relationships with partner schools, offering a genuine value added, bespoke solution for all their recruitment needs. It has been fantastic to watch Education World grow over the years both within the North East and now throughout South Yorkshire and East Midlands and I am excited to continue our vision: ‘To be the fastest growing and most respected education recruitment partner in England by improving education provision for every child, every day!’

Hello I am Andrew and an Education World veteran. I have worked for the company since November 2014 and it’s been quite a journey. I started in a very small office of 4 employees, so its very exciting to see where the company is today with multiple UK offices and close to 30 employees. Initially I was a recruitment consultant running a very successful desk looking after predominately primary schools for a number of years. I took on management responsibilities in 2019 where I continued to run a desk and manage a team of consultants in the North East. My desk continued to grow and so did the team achieving great results year on year. In 2022, I took the difficult decision to give up my desk and focus solely on managing. I now manage Education World temp sales teams across Gateshead, Durham and Sheffield as well as our EWRS team. I look forward to the continued success and growth of these teams into the next few years.

My name is Richard and I lead on the permanent sales at Education World. I have been in Education in a variety of roles for 15 years now and started as a sports coach apprentice in a Northumberland school. I have since gone to qualify as a teacher, and worked my way through the ranks over the past 10 years. My last school-based role seen me lead a school as Headteacher of a South London primary School. I have recently joined Education World and look forward to working in line with the company values to ensure we place the very best teachers into schools both in the UK and overseas. Like many, I am passionate that children are taught by the best calibre of teacher possible and will do all I can to ensure EW supports schools in finding the very best teachers out there.
