Matt has always held a passion for education. Having long-considered a career as a Primary Teacher himself, he considers himself very fortunate to have spent much of his career to date working in an industry where he can positively enhance educational outcomes from a wider-perspective; through the quality of teaching and support staff that he provides to schools.

Matt has worked in Education Recruitment for the past 12 years. During this time, he has successfully supported Primary and Secondary Schools across London, East Anglia, the Home Counties and Yorkshire with permanent teacher appointments and long-term graduate appointments. In addition, he has been heavily involved in Initial Teacher Training and is particularly invested in supporting school leaders to ‘grow their own’ teaching talent. Matt gets great enjoyment from speaking to ‘future teachers’ and listening to what has inspired them to consider teaching as their future careers. Being able to support these graduates in securing their first school-based role and then seeing their careers progress is incredibly rewarding.

Away from work, Matt loves spending time with his family. When not watching Disney films with his two daughters (their choice, not mine...), he is probably either out running, attempting to play golf or adding to his collection of obscurely flavoured gins.
