Learning & Performance Coach
Milk Education Liverpool HQ
Are you an experienced Recruitment Consultant with a proven track record of building successful desk?
Do you love coaching, mentoring and helping others succeed?
If you're ready to step away from running a desk and into a role where your impact is measured by the success of others, we'd love to hear from you.
At Milk Education, we specialise in recruiting Teachers, Teaching Assistants and Early Years professionals into schools across the UK. We're proudly independent, purpose-driven and growing at an incredible pace. With nine offices nationwide and plans to open even more, there's never been a more exciting time to join us.
As our business continues to grow, so does our Learning & Development team. Reporting directly to our Learning & Development Manager, you'll play a key role in developing the next generation of Recruitment Consultants, ensuring every new starter receives the coaching, support and guidance they need to become successful within their first three months. You'll also work alongside our experienced consultants, helping to drive consistency, raise standards and embed best practice across the business.
What You'll Be Doing
- Deliver engaging induction training to all new starters, setting them up for success from day one.
- Provide ongoing coaching and support throughout each consultant's onboarding journey.
- Monitor performance against KPIs, activity levels and quality standards, providing regular feedback and development plans.
- Coach consultants through candidate pre-screening, interviews, compliance and recruitment best practice.
- Carry out quality audits to ensure company processes and compliance standards are consistently achieved.
- Work closely with Branch Managers to identify development opportunities and implement tailored coaching plans.
- Support and develop existing consultants, helping them improve performance, consistency and overall results.
- Deliver one-to-one coaching sessions, workshops and refresher training across the business.
- Track individual progress, celebrate success and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
- Champion a culture of learning, accountability and high performance across every branch.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
