This is made possible through the close working relationships that it holds with each of its schools – a relationship that also grants it an insight into their unique needs. Boasting nearly three decades of experience in recruitment, Alison of Red Lester established the agency to home in on education recruitment in particular. She recognised a demand originating from the Channel Islands – one that cried out for teachers who were both exceptionally talented and perfect for the requirements of their students – and thusly took things back to basics. As opposed to overcomplicating the recruitment process, Alison ensured that Red Lester provided a clear avenue for teachers to pursue employment opportunities. Now, it’s a renowned agency that has successfully partnered a multitude of teachers with well-resourced schools across the archipelago. However, what makes Red Lester unique to other recruitment agencies is its independence. As an independent recruitment agency, it holds the power to remove the stigma surrounding the typical recruitment agency, instead replacing it with a fresh vision. This new approach focuses on education recruitment in the sense of supplying teachers, for the benefit of both the educator and the education establishment. It’s for this reason that Red Lester is incredibly proud to be a small business with that family feel; it allows it to connect with clients on a far deeper level. Teachers aren’t simply a number that exists to meet a target, but are instead individuals with their own dreams and aspirations that deserve to be realised by an agency such as Red Lester. Of course, running an independent education recruitment agency is about the harmony between teachers and schools. As such, Red Lester is as in tune with its schools as it is with its teachers. When working alongside Red Lester, schools can expect personalised customer service that seeks to understand exactly what they need. From there, it can identify the nuances within each educational establishment, and flawlessly fill the gap with its teachers.

Combined, these qualities allow Red Lester to deliver effective solutions, whether employer or employee. For years, Red Lester has been placing all its passion into creating a system that gives everyone what they want. Sourcing only the best of the best, the collective is inviting a new age of recruitment – one that will unapologetically commit itself to realising the wants, needs, and desires of teachers and schools alike.
