I’m a Recruitment Consultant with a background in SEND education, working closely with SEND and SEMH schools across East Sussex, and I’m currently looking to connect with quality educators who are open to new opportunities. Having spent several years working directly within specialist education myself, I understand that finding the right setting is just as important as finding the right role.

Rather than advertising one specific vacancy, I work with a range of specialist schools offering different environments, age groups and working patterns. My aim is to help good educators find settings where they can feel supported, valued and able to do their best work. Whether you’re actively looking for a new role, considering a move into SEND, or simply want to understand what opportunities are available, I’d be happy to have a conversation.

Depending on your experience, interests and availability, opportunities may include:

  • SEND and SEMH teaching roles
  • Teaching Assistant and Learning Support Assistant positions
  • 1:1 support opportunities
  • Behaviour and engagement-focused roles
  • Classroom and intervention support
  • Day-to-day, long-term and ongoing placements
  • Primary and secondary specialist settings

Some educators are looking for stability and a long-term position. Others prefer flexibility and the opportunity to experience different schools and settings. Both approaches are welcome.

The schools I work with consistently tell me they’re looking for people who:

  • Build positive relationships with young people
  • Remain calm and professional under pressure
  • Bring consistency and reliability into the classroom
  • Work well as part of a team
  • Understand that progress often starts with trust

Experience within SEND or SEMH is beneficial, but it isn’t everything. Many successful educators come from backgrounds such as education, care, youth work, coaching, mentoring or support work. The right attitude and willingness to learn are often just as important as previous experience.

Registering gives you access to a wider range of opportunities than a single advert can offer. Benefits include:

  • Access to multiple SEND and SEMH opportunities across East Sussex
  • Honest insight into different schools and settings
  • Ongoing support throughout your placement
  • Access to CPD and training opportunities
  • Flexibility and choice over the type of work you undertake
  • A consultant who understands specialist education
