Who we are…

The words 'Pro Ed' are written in the sand on a beach, with ocean waves approaching in the background.

Welcome to Pro Ed – your trusted partner in education recruitment.

Founded in 2025, we’ve quickly become a go-to choice for schools, academies, and trusts across Essex who need reliable, high-quality staff. Our growing network of fully vetted, qualified teachers and teaching assistants means we can respond fast to your needs – whether it’s last-minute sickness cover, long-term placements, or permanent recruitment.

For educators, we’re more than just an agency – we’re your career partner. We take the time to understand your skills, goals, and personality to match you with the right school environment, so you can thrive both professionally and personally. We can also offer you opportunities within our wider company to gain a deeper understanding of working with children.

At Pro Ed, we combine experience, integrity, and genuine care to make recruitment better for everyone. Whether you’re leading a school or inspiring a class, we’re here to make every placement count.
