Hourglass consultants have been playing a leading role in education recruitment for decades, and regularly partner with schools, multi-academy trusts and local authorities to help them recruit and retain the very best teachers – at all levels.
By working closely with education leaders, and offering expert advice and guidance, we regularly help to weigh up the pros and cons of key career development and strategic hiring decisions.
We have supported hundreds of schools, multi-academy trusts and local authorities, and every placement we’ve ever made shapes our approach to senior leadership roles.
Leadership roles are exciting and challenging, and finding the best candidates for those roles requires a thorough appreciation of the challenges involved. Hourglass has unique market insight, and a comprehensive view of available talent. We’ll search out and select the most suitable candidates and once the heavy lifting is done, your focus can be to choose the best fit.
As a senior-level candidate, balancing the demands of a challenging role, with managing your own career development can be difficult. We’re here to provide an objective assessment of your skills and experience, and work with you to identify a rewarding and successful career pathway – and, of course, to present the opportunities you need to make that happen.
Our knowledge and ambition is what drives us forward. As sector specialists, we’re determined to share our expertise with both our clients and candidates.
We will always act in the best interest of our clients, candidates and each other. We stand by our commitments, we keep our promises and treat everyone with respect.
We believe that our words, actions and convictions are at the heart of our approach, but carrying them out with integrity is everything.

My agent Claire ensured all I needed was at my fingertips, and my transition from Jamaica was smooth and effortless. All the necessary documents, interviews and places to be were suggested with hassle-free instructions. Thanks to Hourglass for making my transition to the UK a success and smooth one.
