Candidate Referral Scheme

Know someone looking
for a new role?

At MAT Recruitment, we believe great people know even more great people. That’s why we’ve introduced our Candidate Referral Scheme — giving you the chance to help friends, colleagues, or former peers secure their next role in education, while rewarding you for spreading the word.

How the MAT Referral Scheme works

Whether it’s a teacher, senior leader, or support staff professional — if you know someone who would thrive in a new opportunity, simply introduce them to us. Once they’re placed in a role, you’ll receive a thank-you reward as a token of our appreciation.
