Managing Recruitment Consultant β Education
Milk Education | Leeds
WARM DESKS | EXISTING REVENUE | HUGE GROWTH POTENTIAL
π Are you currently working at Senior or Principal level and ready to level up?
Maybe you're ready to take that next step into management, put your own stamp on a desk and start building your own team.
At Milk Education, we're looking for an experienced Senior or Principal Education Recruiter who is ready for their next challenge β someone with the ambition to take ownership, build something of their own and make a genuine impact across the education sector.
You'll have access to warm desk opportunities, existing revenue and established relationships across our Primary, Secondary and SEND divisions, giving you the platform to hit the ground running and build from there.
This isn't about coming in and starting from scratch.
It's about taking what you already know, having the freedom to put your own stamp on things, grow your market and ultimately build your own team.
And the opportunities? They're limitless.
Why Milk Education?
We're a proudly independent education recruitment business that's grown from 4 offices to 9 nationwide in just a few years β and we're nowhere near finished.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd 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 β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
