Founded in 2024, NextGen Teachers is on a mission to make a positive impact across the Education Sector in West Yorkshire, South of England and London.
Work for us
Our team have a passion for education and are always encouraged to learn and develop their wider knowledge enabling them to work in partnership with the schools and teachers they support. We believe it's what sets us apart!
“NextGen” might be new in terms of the years we’ve been trading but we are proud to be part of Huntress. While we are specialists in our market, we enjoy all the benefits of being part of the wider business and are very much one culture, in fact we share our office with Huntress Leeds, Crawley and London that has built an outstanding reputation in the local area over 25 years!
Our values
Our values are what we hold everyone accountable for, they mean something, and we genuinely believe in them.
Our culture and approach to flexible working
Being a new brand means we are not defined by a history and legacy of “how we have always done things!”
Typically, in Education your holidays are dictated by school holidays, that’s not the case with us. In recruitment, a “normal” working day is often set in stone, but at NextGen you will have the chance to start at 6,7,8,9 or 10!
We’ll also look to implement flexibility in working hours to enable our people to pursue their passion and activities outside of work.
One of the most rewarding benefits of working for NextGen is that we take a mature approach to flexible working. Some of our consultants prefer to be in the office full-time while others choose to work 100% remotely. We will always listen to our people and create an environment which works for you and the team.

What our people say
5
After 8 years of working in the Education Recruitment space I wanted to create an environment which brings in the best of everything for our people. Moving to set-up NextGen Teachers has been the best decision in my education recruitment career for a multitude of different reasons. I am able to support, train and guide my staff and work on the ground with then day in and day out. I am able to empower my staff and support them in their NextGen careers to push on to do great things. No two days are the same in recruitment and giving my staff flexibility, autonomy and training that they need to be successful is my number one priority and I am forever proud of the positive and motivational culture that we have at NextGen Teachers. I love coming to work and helping shape the future generation through the work we do. Throughout my career I have made some life-long relationships with clients and candidates that will stay with me for the rest of my life and that is something money can't buy.

As a recruitment compliance officer at NextGen, it is my duty to ensure everyone is compliant to work in an environment with children. I get to speak to the amazing candidate about their past experiences and make sure their onboarding processes are as smooth as possible. At NextGen I get to work with amazing hardworking women who are dedicated to the education sector and are making a positive impact as a whole.
