There are so many elements to our work at Gold Education Recruitment that we adore. From building rapport with local schools in Essex, to helping to reignite a passion for teaching in those who find their perfect placements. But recruiting in education is so much more than something we love to do. Teachers and educational staff play a vital role in children’s lives, making what we do so important.
A teacher’s role
Most of us were lucky enough to have at least one key teacher in our lives. That teacher who inspired us to be more, believed in us when we didn’t believe in ourselves, or ignited a passion for leaning we had previously been missing.
There are so many stories from those in the public eye of how their journeys to where they are today, started with the encouragement of an amazing teacher. The importance of a teacher’s role in a child’s life is so important, and the profession is one genuinely has the opportunity to change someone’s life.
For some, school is their safe haven, and for others, it is a place they can learn who they are and what they want to do. Working in education means that you have a direct link to giving future generations the skills, confidence and ability to be who they want to be.
“Teaching is the one profession that creates all other professions.”
Our why
When establishing a recruitment agency, there are many industries that you can focus on. We often get asked why we chose to specialise in education recruitment. Not only do we have over 25 years collectively of experience in education recruitment, but we really do appreciate the importance teachers and education staff have on a child’s life. This makes working within recruitment even more rewarding as we get to support amazing candidates from across Essex, in finding their perfect match at a local school.
“I chose this career because I love building positive relationships and the reward it gives you when you build a new connection between a School and candidate. Teachers come to us sometimes not sure whether teaching is still the right career for them, so when you introduce them to a School and it rejuvenates their career it makes it so rewarding to see them re-ignite their love for teaching.”
- Paul Yates, Director and Executive Consultant
