ED Recruit

ED Recruit is a London-based recruitment agency that places teachers in schools, colleges and academies. It says it works with institutions nationwide to source primary, secondary and further education teachers, and it also runs a specialist service for independent schools.

An International Service Offering connects UK-trained teachers with schools in the Middle East and Asia, an education market the company describes as rapidly expanding. It says its team combines experience in both recruitment and teaching.

The company was co-founded by Laurence Underwood and Kate Underwood. Laurence began as a teacher and later built a recruitment career placing consultant doctors in the NHS and Finance Directors in various industries. Kate is a director who oversees business automation, IT strategy, marketing and internal training.
