Tradewind Recruitment is one of the UK''s leading education recruitment agencies and is part of a wider global recruitment group.

Our mission is to take ambitious people and develop them into exceptional recruitment consultants, future leaders and high earners.

Who Are We Looking For?

We want hungry, ambitious people who want to win.

Our strongest consultants often come from backgrounds such as:

  • Hospitality - restaurants, bars, hotels and other fast-paced customer environments
  • Sales - car sales, phone sales, estate agency, retail or B2B sales
  • Teaching / Education - ex-teachers looking for a commercially focused career with greater earning potential
  • Graduate backgrounds - especially graduates who worked alongside their studies and have already demonstrated a strong work ethic
  • Sport - competitive athletes and people who thrive in competitive environments
  • Customer service or other high-pressure, target-driven environments

You don''t need recruitment experience.

In fact, some of our best people have never worked in recruitment before.

What matters is whether you have the mindset and determination to succeed.

Are You the Right Person?

Recruitment is a performance-driven industry.

There will be good days.

There will be difficult days.

You''ll hear "no".

You''ll have targets.

You''ll have competition.

And you''ll have the opportunity to make a serious amount of money when you perform.

That''s why we need people who are:

  • Super resilient
  • Money hungry
  • Highly driven
  • Competitive
  • Ambitious
  • Goal-oriented
  • Confident
  • Commercially minded
  • Hard working
  • Determined
  • Coachability-focused
  • Motivated by success

If you want an easy 9-5 where you can coast, this probably isn''t the role for you.

If you want to push yourself, make money, progress quickly and become genuinely excellent at what you do, it could be exactly what you''re looking for.
