Active Recruitment Reviews 172

I have been fortunate to know Ryan and his team for a number of years. Ryan brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and an amazing sense of humour to the world of educational recruitment. Active Recruitment know their market incredibly well and they approach the role of the recruiter with professionalism, care and expertise. If you want to work with a team of recruiters who provide a personal, bespoke and first class service, give Active an opportunity to support you.

Active Recruitment have been outstanding in helping me to find a suitable placement as a teaching assistant.They are far and away the best education agency I have come across and I have recommended them to many colleagues.
They offer a personal, friendly and transparent service and are always on hand to answer any questions or queries.
A special mention to Ryan Kissin who has shown professionalism throughout the process and made it as smooth as possible.

Great company , they help to find the best suited placement in a school that suits your needs , I have a fabulous agent called David who is always at the end of a phone if any problems arise or I need some info would definitely recommend to friends this company

Having never worked with an agency at any stage of my 20 year career. I have found the whole process to be refreshing and extremely supportive. Ryan Kissin and his team are professional, supportive and on the ball. Through Ryan’s guidance and proactive support - I have secured a new post with renowned trust based in London. Ryan appears to (in my experience) have built trusted relationships with a range of employers across the educational spectrum and is customer focused in his approach. Be it with dealing with trusts or down to the smallest details that help you as professional. He knows the Educational landscape well and I would highly recommend both Ryan and Active Recruitment if you are considering your next steps professionally.

Very professional and helpful. Ryan has helped find some very good teachers for my department, finding candidates that match our needs perfectly. Happy to recommend active recruitment!

What sets Active Recruitment apart is their transparency. There's no small print or any nasty surprises.
When dealing with Ryan, you get complete honesty and when they don't have a suitable candidate, he will tell you.
This means that he never wastes your time and, also, when recruitment needs arise in the future, you'll go back to Active as they've been honest with you previously.

Extremely professional, with a personal service.

Ryan is always so helpful and friendly. He understood what we needed and was very competitive with his prices. The staff who have been supplied have been great and really helped us out.

Fantastic service! Ryan is friendly and supportive. I have recommended this recruitment agency to many of my colleagues.

I would highly recommend Active Recruitment if you are looking to return to the classroom. Ryan has been outstanding in supporting me through the process of returning to full time secondary teaching. He has fully understood the challenges that I have as a mum of 3 and managed everything from the interview to contracts to handover days seamlessly. If you are a teacher looking for new opportunities, the best decision you can make is to give Ryan a call.

I had never got a job using an agency before but I am really happy with this service- I had a lovely Consultant manager called David put me forward for a job and interview really quickly and not only did I get the job straight away my consultant manager David supported me with everything and gave me the positive encouragement and the reassurance I needed.
Truly grateful to the company and especially my consultant manager 😊

I was trying to find work as quickly as possible and Charlotte helped me achieve this - whilst still meeting my needs and giving me full support, both before and after the interview. Any concerns had, was dealt with professionally and efficiently. Thank you!

Active Recruitment has been the best teaching agency I have signed up to. They are very professional and considerate. They find me placements that are relevant to my needs and local to where I live. Cannot recommend them highly enough. If you are thinking of supply work try them and ask for Ryan.

Charlotte has been helpful and positive throughout. The original temporary role was not quite right for me, so she has continued to be supportive and understanding and is helping me find the right role.

David Warren at Active Recruitment landed me a job. He was enthusiastic and positive during all of our interactions, and was very responsive, attentive and helpful throughout the short process. Thank you!

My experience with Active Recruitment has been incredibly positive, the service provided was professional, friendly and helpful. David went above and beyond to help me find a position that best suited me answering any queries that I had quickly and providing support throughout the entire process. Would definitely recommend this agency to others and want to say a huge thank you for all their help!

I have started working with Active Recruitment. David is very supportive with quick responses and effective communication, completely flexible and amazing at finding work within a certain area or postcode and will try his very best to always find work when needed, usually long placements too so you aren’t feeling anxious about whether you will have work. Thank you for all your support.

Great Agency very understanding of personal needs and skills and future goals, very responsive and supportive as well as honest and not pushy

I have been working with Active Recruitment since their inception in 2015. The service has been professional, yet friendly and supportive. I could not ask for better. They are easy to work with and so I have hardly used other agencies, although I get contacted by quite a few. Whenever I want to work, Active Recruitment have always provided work.

Having worked for a number of agencies in the past.I have found Active Recruitment to be head and shoulders above the rest.
The support they give you is of an excellent standard.Ryan in particular is very committed to answering any question you have and being there when you need him.
I am confident that Active are the recruitment company to turn to if you are looking for employment in the education sector.
