Turn Your Passion for Performing into a Career with Tradewind Recruitment - Manchester

Do you have a background in performing arts and thrive in fast-paced, people-focused environments? Are you confident, resilient, and looking to channel your creativity into a dynamic new career?

At Tradewind Recruitment Manchester, we're hiring individuals with a performing arts background who are ready to bring their energy, communication skills, and passion for people into the world of education recruitment.

Why Performing Arts Professionals Excel with Us
The skills you've developed on stage - communication, adaptability, presence, discipline, and emotional intelligence - are exactly what make successful recruiters. At Tradewind, we'll help you apply those strengths in a new direction, offering a rewarding and high-impact career.

What We Offer

  • Competitive starting salary of £28,000 - £30,000, plus uncapped commission (first-year earnings £35,000 - £40,000+)

  • Commission from day one, not just after hitting targets

  • 35 days annual leave, plus reduced hours (4.5-hour days) during school holidays

  • All-expenses-paid international incentive trips

  • Daily perks: free breakfast, Friday drinks, and a vibrant team environment

  • Ongoing professional development, tailored coaching, and rapid career progression

The Role
You'll be joining a high-performing, supportive team in Manchester and play a vital part in connecting schools with quality educators. Day-to-day responsibilities include:

  • Interviewing and supporting education professionals for temporary and permanent roles

  • Promoting candidates to schools across the region

  • Building lasting relationships with schools and education staff

  • Hitting personal and team performance targets

  • Earning commission for every placement and achievement

Why Tradewind Manchester?
We're not your typical recruitment agency. As a Sunday Times Top 100 Company and one of the UK's largest education recruiters, we combine high standards with a close-knit, inclusive team culture. We value individuality, energy, and integrity - and we invest heavily in your long-term success.

Who We're Looking For
This role is perfect for those who:

  • Have experience in the performing arts (acting, theatre, musical theatre, etc.)

  • Are confident, articulate, and naturally great with people

  • Thrive in fast-paced, target-driven environments

  • Want to build a meaningful, long-term career with real impact
