All applicants will require the appropriate qualification and training for this role. For teacher roles, we require a formally recognised teaching qualification.
We:
- Ensure that you will have your own dedicated consultant who will provide ongoing support and guidance.
- Offer an excellent ‘refer a friend’ scheme that pays you £150 for each candidate you refer to us after they have worked and been paid for their first 10 days.
- Pay in line with the Agency Worker Regulations (AWR) meaning you will be paid equally to a permanent employee.
