Specialist international education recruitment for UK & MENA schools
Let us take the pressure out of finding and hiring experienced British teachers and education professionals.
As a social enterprise, we understand the financial pressures on schools and education providers. Our fee structure is simple, transparent and competitive, giving you access to high-quality teachers and education staff without excessive agency margins. We focus on long-term partnerships and repeat success, not one-off placements.
All permanent education vacancies are covered by our 6-month guarantee. If things don’t work out within the guarantee period, we will work with you to find a suitable replacement in line with our Terms of Business.
We focus on long-term partnerships and repeat success, not one-off placements.
We will send you a small, well-matched shortlist – typically within 48 hours of receiving your instruction for urgent roles.
Every candidate is spoken to, briefed on your school, location and package, and checked for curriculum fit, experience and motivation before being introduced.
Alongside our in-house database of British-trained teachers and education professionals, Ark Education Recruitment works with a trusted network of recruiters and referrers.
This allows us to find candidates for a wide range of roles – from early years and primary through to secondary, FE, leadership and support – across London, the Home Counties and international schools throughout the Middle East & North Africa.
We invest time in getting to know each candidate’s goals, strengths and expectations. Before they meet you, we brief them on your school, culture, workload, location and package so they can make an informed decision.
This reduces last-minute withdrawals, improves interview quality and helps you attract teachers who are genuinely committed to your school and community.
Our journey as a social enterprise is rooted in the belief that recruitment can and should create wider social value. By working with Ark Education, you’re not only strengthening your own teams – you’re also supporting projects that promote education, dignity and wellbeing in under-served communities.
