Training Providers
Vocational education and training

Tailored to You

For 25 years, we’ve partnered with privately owned commercial and not-for-profit independent training providers (ITPs) to match the right candidates with the right vacancies.

Flexibility

With over 1,000 active ITPs nationwide delivering about 75% of apprenticeships, we recruit staff for many, ensuring adaptability for diverse learning environments.

Expertise

Since Independent Training Providers often collaborate with colleges, our expertise in working with both sectors enables us to understand this close relationship.

Specialist recruitment for training providers

We’ve been working with privately owned commercial, and not-for-profit independent training providers (ITPs) for 25 years, pairing the right candidates with the right vacancies.

There are over 1,000 registered and active ITPs across the country, delivering approximately 75% of apprenticeships, and we recruit staff for many of them. Typically offering learning and training in classrooms, on their own premises, or in workplaces – and usually a combination of all three – it’s key for their staff to be adaptable. ITPs often work closely with FE colleges, subcontracting around 40% of their apprenticeships, and because we work with colleges too, we’re experts at understanding this close relationship.

Find the right fit

We know from experience that training providers are incredibly diverse – no two are the same. From large national companies to smaller offices, each of our clients have their own specialisms. In addition to apprenticeships, these include vocational qualifications, English and maths, traineeships, employability skills, offender learning and more.

So, whether you’re an ITP looking to fill a vacancy, or a candidate actively looking for a permanent or temporary position, we can help. We’re always recruiting for roles at training providers including tutors, trainers, and internal quality assurance, in addition to senior management positions and business support and operational roles.

Long-term relationships

We pride ourselves on the personalised service we offer all of our clients and candidates. As we’ve worked with many independent training providers in the past, we understand that each have their own needs. That’s why we’ll take the time to get to know you, your organisation, and the role(s) you’re hiring for.

We do exactly the same for our candidates. We want to build long-term relationships with the talented people we work with, as it’s the only way to get to know you as people – after all, recruitment is a people business.

Finding the right candidate isn’t just about what’s on paper, it’s about personality, rapport and attitude. We take the time to get to know all of our candidates behind the CV, so we can find the right person for the right job in ITPs across the country.

Quality and compliance is a must, which is why we work hard to ensure we have the most stringent vetting processes in the sector. Our eSafeguarding software is fast and efficient, often returning DBS checks within 24 hours.
