Along with going out and having regular face-to-face client visits whilst building relationships with key decision makers in schools; and creating quality marketing and advertising.

- Additional cash bonuses for performance;
- Regular incentives and prizes;

- Discounts on purchases at a large selection of national retailers;

Great People
Here in our Exeter office, we have significantly developed over the last year and are in the perfect position to welcome a new consultants to our growing team.
The moment you walk into the office the positive atmosphere is immediately noticeable. This infectious culture heavily contributes to a very collaborative learning environment where everyone's thoughts and ideas are supported and encouraged.
After all that hard work, we're also a very social bunch! Aside from frequent branch and regional nights out we have regular company-wide events which give everyone a chance to get together and celebrate our combined efforts and achievements.
For this opportunity we are looking for individuals who are educated to a degree level. What discipline you studied is not important but we look for people who believe in the same things we do - the desire to provide a quality and professional service to the teacher's and school's who rely on us.
A great 'can do' attitude, confidence, drive and the ability to work well in a team environment will help you make this a success.
If you would like the opportunity to discuss your long term career prospects with us then we would love to hear from you. Please apply with an up to date CV and covering letter.
