Do You Know Someone Looking For A Role In Education? Let Us Help!
At MAT Recruitment, we believe great people know even more great people. That’s why we’ve introduced our Candidate Referral Scheme, giving you the chance to help friends, colleagues, or former peers secure their next role in education while rewarding you for spreading the word.
Whether it’s a teacher, senior leader, or support staff professional, if you know someone who would thrive in a new opportunity, simply introduce them to us. Once they’re placed in a role you’ll receive a thank-you reward as a token of our appreciation.
It’s our way of saying thank you for helping us to continue to connect schools with talented education professionals and supporting more students to succeed. By participating, you help strengthen the education workforce, support better outcomes for learners, and reinforce the reputation of the schools we partner with across the North West. See recent education workforce trends in England for why your recommendation really makes a difference. The process is simple, transparent and designed with respect, both for the person you refer and our school clients. We’ll handle the outreach, match the candidate’s skills and preferences, and guide them through each stage of the recruitment journey.

How the MAT Recruitment Scheme Works
Submit your recommendation: Share your friend’s or colleague’s name, role, location and contact details using our short form (please confirm they’re happy to be contacted).
We reach out: Our team contacts the introduced candidate to discuss opportunities that match their skills and preferences.
We introduce them to schools: If they’re a good fit, we arrange prospective interviews and support them through the recruitment process.
Placement confirmed: When your introduced candidate accepts a role through MAT Recruitment, we’ll let you know right away.
You get rewarded: Once they start (and complete the qualifying period), we’ll send your thank-you reward!
