Andy fell into the world of recruitment at the start of 2024. Utilising his English Literature degree and experience in sales, he was keen to work in an industry in which dealing with people and building relationships could be his bread and butter. Andy jumped at the chance to support the education sector – recalling his own positive experiences with inspiring teachers throughout his academic career.
Despite being new to the world of recruitment – with most of his career spent within the beer industry, Andy is eager to learn the ropes and continue to support schools in Greater Manchester with the best graduate talent. He has enjoyed early successes under the guidance of an experienced team at KPi Education, and has high hopes for his future at the business!

Tom is entering his 4th year in recruitment and has achieved a good amount in a relatively short space of time. He started his education recruitment journey in the strangest of circumstances as the world was shut down due to Covid! Tom also started in a completely undeveloped area in Liverpool, building relationships with schools from scratch and now has a strong presence across Merseyside with primary, secondary and SEN schools.
Away from work, Tom loves sport. He plays cricket every weekend throughout the summer and enjoys a game of golf and football when he can as well as working part-time for a rugby team as a performance analyst. He is also a long-suffering Everton fan! Tom lives in Liverpool with his partner – who is a primary school teacher funnily enough.
