The Cardiff Team

We are in an exciting new phase of growth having established our first Welsh office here in Cardiff. You would be joining a new team during its infancy and would be a key player in establishing the dynamic and culture of the office. Vision for education are a leading education provider in the UK so we have the support and investment of an education leader to make this a real success! 

What’s the Vision?

Being a new team we are at the beginning of our journey in Wales with big expansion plans to grow which brings plenty of progression opportunities and being able to navigate the market as we see fit.

As part of working in the new Cardiff office you would be a key pillar and actively involved in the success of the office. While business is important we are looking to grow an inclusive, fun and vibrant office space where everyone performs well, but also really enjoy coming to work! We treat people like adults where you will have the flexibility to work from home on Wednesdays (if you choose to) and will provide the trust and autonomy needed to perform to the best of your ability whilst also feeling a part of a progressive journey.

We aim to make our first Wales office a big success where everyone is a high achiever and working towards their own individual and office goals.
