We know further education recruitment

We operate five national further education hubs which cover the whole of the UK. Our dedicated FE consultants work in partnership with you to identify and source the best further education professionals across all institutions, including colleges, sixth forms, prisons, leadership roles and training providers. We provide a full suite of recruitment solutions, including temporary, permanent, fixed-term contract, interim and managed services.

Reed’s consultants make it their priority to understand your needs, enabling them to deliver the best possible service and to find your perfect match, allowing you to deliver the best learning experience and outcomes for your learners. You will receive support whenever you require it, with our further education specialists providing an out-of-hours service.

We place quality and safeguarding at the heart of our service. Our entire safeguarding process adheres to ‘Safer Recruitment in Education’ regulations, and we will work with you to understand the specific compliance requirements of your school or setting. We are also an accredited member of APSCo Compliance+, and our stringent checks guarantee that candidates are fully vetted in line with legal requirements.

Lecturer, assessor & leadership recruitment

Our further education specialists have vast experience in working with institutions to secure the best lecturers and assessors, as well as permanent, and interim management, leadership and consultancy positions, including senior further education managers and interim curriculum managers.

We support over 80% of colleges and 300 sixth forms across the UK, giving us the scale to develop a pool of highly-skilled candidates to deploy into any setting. We recruit for all types of further education settings, including in-depth knowledge of training provision and prison education, as well as academic institutions.

With over 60 years’ recruitment experience, Reed knows how to facilitate the perfect match between organisations and professionals, so we will always find candidates with the perfect skills and traits that match your college or place of learning – whether that be a superb lecturer giving your students their best outcomes or a college leader setting a transformational strategic direction.

Learning support & SEND recruitment

Reed works with a vast range of special education needs and disabilities (SEND) departments inside colleges, giving us the experience and expertise to solve your recruitment challenges. We understand that every SEND role is different, so our experts will seek to understand your specific requirements and recommend professionals which fit your specification.

Compliance and vetting are at the heart of everything we do. We offer you complete peace of mind knowing that all safeguarding protocols and checks for SEND and learning support professionals have been adhered to, with our screening and compliance service operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Using our wide recruitment network, we can secure a range of learning support and SEND specialists, including SEND lecturers and tutors, SEND learning support assistants (LSAs) and teaching assistants (TAs), and progress coaches and achievement tutors.

Apprentice & work-based learning recruitment

Our further education experts have a proven track record of finding top professionals to support your apprenticeship and work-based learning programmes.

As the number one UK recruiter, working across 20 sectors, we not only have access to a variety of specialist tutors, but also 12 million industry experts who work in the other industries we recruit for. Our further education team is experienced in supporting these industry specialists who wish to transition to a career in FE.

Our specialists have vast knowledge of sourcing apprenticeship tutors, work placement officers and work placement co-ordinators across the full spectrum of further education institutions.

Prison education recruitment

Reed is an established, specialist provider of prison education staffing. Our long-standing market presence and national reach gives us great depth and breadth when it comes to available candidates, so whether you need specialist subject tutors, education managers or any other prison education roles, we’re there to support you.

Our expertise in the prison education sector has led to us being awarded a national account by a leading prison education provider which covers numerous prisons across the UK. Additionally, we also have a proven track record of running offender learning & skills service (OLASS) contracts ourselves; demonstrating our background in the sector.

Given the sensitive nature of prison education, you want to work with a specialist recruitment team who you can trust. We have considerable expertise in areas of compliance, particularly when it comes to high-level security clearance. You can be assured that when you partner with Reed to find prison education staff, you will be provided with fully vetted and complaint professionals.

Cross-college recruitment & managed services

We are vastly experienced in providing a full suite of recruitment solutions, including managed service programmes (MSPs) and recruitment process outsourcing (RPOs) which cover every single position in your education setting. Our expertise in this area allows us to confidently manage contracts of all sizes and requirements, including individual niche single role recruitment, through to preferred supplier agreements and full managed services.

Reed is proud to be listed on the following key procurement frameworks: YPO, ESPO (Mstar3 and 3S), SUPC and LUPC, the CPC and the CCS.

Our recruitment solutions not only support you in finding the right tutors, lecturers and assessors, but also recruits for a full range of supporting roles across your establishment, such as facilities roles, management information (MI) specialists and data coordinators.

And understand your pain points...

Our vast experience of further education recruitment has taught us the challenge of finding the best professionals for in-demand roles. Therefore, our specialists are consistently growing their network of further education professionals.

We use every available strategy to ensure that you have access to the best available staff. This includes utilising Reed.co.uk, the UK’s number one digital recruitment service, as well as recruitment events, adverts and referrals. Reed’s scale and breadth of expertise also allows us to link locally and nationally with our specialist consultants in other sectors to find industry experts who can transition into further education.

When you work with Reed, you will be supplied with only the best available professionals. All the staff who we recommend are fully vetted and pre-screened, having gone through a rigorous interview process.

We supply previous observations and testimonials wherever possible, and we will continually liaise with you and the professional while they are in their role to ensure that their performance is monitored and supported.

Our further education experts can react quickly to provide any staffing cover. We have a wide talent pool of pre-cleared candidates ready to be deployed when needed, while our existing workforce can also rapidly set availability to pick up extra work by using the JoinedUp app.

Your dedicated Reed consultant will be in constant communication with your organisation, allowing them to pre-empt any recruitment needs which may arise and work proactively to efficiently meet these requirements.

Whenever you encounter disruption, we can tailor our bespoke recruitment services to ensure that you can continue to deliver an excellent learning experience for your students.

Our further education specialists are available to help at any time and will ensure you have the right level of staffing to meet your requirements. We can provide you with academic and non-academic professionals at short notice, helping you to manage any short or long-term disruption.

You may have experienced permanent recruitment processes which are slow, and where positions have needed to be readvertised multiple times. Reed’s bespoke recruitment packages will ensure you avoid this.

Our services are tailored to suit your needs, whether for individual roles or larger permanent recruitment models. We ensure the service we provide fulfils your needs by delivering cost efficiencies and placements first time, every time.

We’re committed to helping education institutions reach quality candidates, build resilience and empower learning. Find out how our specialised recruitment services will help you find passionate educators and enable both your staff and pupils to meet their ambitions.

We have been working with Click for over 5 years now and have always secured a highly responsive and fast paced turnaround with high quality interims well suited to our culture and business requirements. Click definitely go the extra mile in understanding our role descriptions, delivering a bespoke solution and are diligent and conscientious in monitoring the performance of interims. I would highly recommend their services.

Steve is brilliant, he has been really instrumental in enabling our service to improve use of the Pro Suite and has provided support and training for managers in relation to handling data and data analysis, running reports and really developing our use of destination data. He’s also worked with our IT department to create live data links and a new online enrolment system.

It has been really great working the Click associate and she has been a real asset. Especially as there was a lot to sort out and she has really got stuck in and ran with it straightaway.

The team at Click are always very responsive and keen to determine your exact requirements so that they can quickly start to identify the most appropriate person for your role. It helps immensely that the Click team are all highly experienced FE professionals in their own right, so they really understand what you are trying to achieve. The interims that I have worked with have all been very experienced, very professional and able to hit the ground running – exactly what you need from an interim manager. Once the interim is in post, Click stay in touch to make sure that you are achieving the outcomes intended from the appointment. Crucially, the majority of the Click interims are not looking to work in a temporary role until they find a permanent post; they make their living from interim work. This means that they can very quickly adapt to new projects, and understand the subtle differences between being an interim manager and working in a permanent position. Click interims really do add value to your organisation.

Click Associates were great to work with; they really got us out of a sticky spot at short notice. They worked with speed without sacrificing quality and were clear in their communication throughout ensuring that they had a strong understanding of the individual we were looking for to ensure good fit for the role and our team. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again!

Click have provided the college with two well experienced and highly competent interim managers to assist with our medium term capacity issues. We found the service to be of the utmost quality, dependable, consistent and very good value for money. We were especially impressed with the unfailing support given throughout the duration of the posts with Kate’s visits to both the interims and college staff ensuring a smooth and effective service on all sides. We would certainly recommend the services of Click.

Click provides an excellent service tailored to the needs of the organisation. I have been really impressed by the quality of consultants provided by Click to provide targeted support. They have been very knowledgeable, adaptable and flexible around the needs of our organisation. They are able to engage staff and teams in a non-threatening manner to drive improvements. I would therefore unreservedly recommend Click to any other college seeking similar support and services.

Oxford and Cherwell Valley College has used Click for a range of interim management posts and other support services. The service Click provided was highly professional, efficient and flexible. In a very short period of time they provided us with outstanding members of staff who fitted into the culture and values of our organisation immediately. They worked tirelessly to ensure services to our students were outstanding. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

The College used Click last year for interim staff to cover our Management Information Services Manager post at very short notice and during the start of term, our busiest time of year. This also happened also to coincide with an external audit. We found Click very responsive, putting forward a number of impressive CVs which covered a range of specialisms and software. Telephone interviews enabled rapid shortlisting and appointment allowing us to overcome the immediate demands and ensuring we had capacity until such time we could appoint externally. The College rarely uses interim staff but this time was essential. Click not only appreciated our situation but responded accordingly with timely efficiency and professionalism and would be our first port of call under similar circumstances.

Mel S The support from the Click team prior to and during my assignment in the Middle East was fantastic. Working with the team gave me a seamless move from supporting a college in the UK, to going out to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Whilst away, contact with the team was regular and extremely supportive, not just about the role but about living and working in the Middle East. This support makes any assignment with Click a great one and a pleasure to work as an associate.

Keith B Your passion for the FE sector is clear and that is what drives the work of all those associated with Click, which is without a shadow of doubt the most efficient and supportive organisation I have ever worked with. Long may it continue to be so successful.

Ian G I was recommended to work for Click by some of my peers. They said they were the best managing agency to work for. They were correct in their assertion. From the moment I was interviewed I realised this was a company that not only had a drive and passion for further education but also a professional attitude towards their consultants. Over the last few years I’ve had a number of interesting and challenging opportunities which I have in enjoyed. I feel valued and appreciated and I hope to work for Click for many years to come.

From my very first experiences with Click, I felt like part of a very close family.  Always offered relevant assignments to my skill set, always supported throughout my assignment with visits and phone calls and very much appreciated and valued. Professional to the end and maintaining the highest of standards, working on behalf of Click for my first step into the world of FE consultancy/interim management, certainly prepared me well for a successful career in this field. I also found Click to be the most appreciative and generous employer of all the agencies I worked for.

Fara B It has been a pleasure working with Click as an Associate over the last six years. Click is a company that brings professionalism, enthusiasm and energy to each and every challenge that comes its way. The team provide steadfast direction in a collaborative way always keeping the end goal in sight.  Unsurprisingly, they have become one of the best leaders in the field due to their years of experience and their proven track record supporting colleges in an ever changing climate. I look forward to working with them for many years to come.

Jo C I have found Click to be the best agency to do business with. You can enter a placement knowing you are in good hands and that your needs will be considered alongside those of the organisation. All the staff working for Click are extremely supportive and their loyalty to you and their business is evident in the communication and contact. I am sure that their contribution to the FE sector is recognised as one of the most valuable and significant.

Annette is lovely and the upmost professional I know in Education with extensive experience. There are many agencies out there, but Click really look after their associates.

M I wanted to thank you for your brilliant support with everything and your always helpful advice and guidance over the last few years, it’s been a real pleasure working as an associate for Click. And it goes without saying I’ll be coming straight to you when I need anyone for interim work!
