Supply Teaching Assistant @ Link3 Recruitment
I have been in education for quite some years and due to a change of circumstances signed up to do supply teaching. As a newbie to supply, Alix, my consultant, has been amazing - helping me every step of the way. She has gone above and beyond to answer any questions or queries I have or just to offer any reassurance I may need. I would definitely recommend Link 3, all the consultants have been really nice, especially Alix.

Supply Teacher @ Link3 Recruitment
We use Link3 recruitment for our day to day supply needs for both teachers and TAs. The staff they supply are high quality and our advisor: Nick works hard to send the right candidate for the school’s needs. We have set up a Whats App group to make communication easier which is great as we can easily arrange supply from home without having to phone up. Their vetting procedure is fully compliant and the confirmation they send meets our requirements for our SCR.

I have worked with Link 3 for about 7 years and they are the most diligent and client centred agency I have worked with. They have always found me work when needed, they listen to the kind of school I want to work in and try their utmost to place you in them. They pay well and have become supportive friends. Max is a fabulous recruiter and friend. Jacob and Rick have always had my best interests at their core. Thanks guys.
