Untapped talent awaits

Great educators aren’t always looking for a new role - but they are listening.

What is multichannel recruitment?

Multichannel recruitment leverages the latest digital marketing tactics to attract candidates from various hiring channels. This modern approach helps education leaders and HR teams reach a broader, more diverse talent pool.

With digital advancements, schools and trusts can now expand candidate attraction without increasing resources. Automation and targeted outreach reduce time-to-fill and cost-per-hire, creating efficiencies that are accessible to everyone.
