At Tradewind Recruitment, we appreciate that the role of a Recruitment Consultant can be demanding in any field, let alone one as important as Education supporting the future of the country, and it's for that reason the investment of the company into the Impact Academy really is second to none. As a result, so has the success been of those who have gone before you. Previous graduates from the Impact Academy have gone on to become top 10 consultants in the whole company within a year of sales; if this sounds like this could be an industry, and position, that would be of interest to you, then we are currently recruiting across a number of our Manchester teams and would love to hear from you. Sales and Education experience is not a necessity (just an added bonus)-the success of the Academy is down to the individual consultant having a 'can-do' attitude and wanting to take a handle on their own future successes-if this sounds like you, then we'll be there to support you every step of the way.
