Senior Education Recruitment Consultant
Location: South Wales Salary: £36,000 – £42,000 basic + commission
A senior opportunity within a fast-growing, innovative education recruitment business. This role combines hands-on account management and some mentoring responsibilities, supporting a team of Account Managers while driving growth across your own patch.
The Role
- Own and grow a defined local patch with high-value school accounts

- Support and mentor Account Managers, sharing knowledge and best practices
- Oversee booking levels, candidate presentations, and account performance
- Drive adoption and usage across accounts, focusing on growth and retention rather than only GP margins
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a relationship-driven, business development role, ideal for someone who thrives on both winning new accounts and coaching others to deliver results.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Less admin than a traditional agency role
- High-volume, stable workflow with strong long-term client retention
- Opportunity to mentor and develop colleagues while managing your own accounts
- Supportive, structured, and collaborative team culture
Bonuses & Commission
- Performance measured on growth, adoption, and activity
- Commission split: 50% individual / 50% team
