Principal Recruitment Consultant – SEND
Milk Education | Leeds
Warm Desk | Existing Revenue | Huge Growth Potential

Are you an experienced recruiter looking for your next challenge?

Ideally, you'll come from education recruitment, but if you've built a successful desk within a fast-paced temporary recruitment environment (Industrial, Driving, Commercial, Healthcare or similar), we'd love to hear from you too.

As one of our fantastic consultants heads off on their travels, an exciting opportunity has become available to take over a warm SEND desk with existing revenue, established client relationships, and huge potential for further growth. This is a fantastic platform for someone who wants to hit the ground running while putting their own stamp on the desk.

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—and we're nowhere near finished.
We're passionate about developing our people, giving back through our Make Life Kind charity, and creating an environment where recruiters genuinely enjoy coming to work.

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.
