Pertemps helped me get my first job in a school. 

Branden realised my potential after looking at my CV and a video interview, he found my a job in the perfect school. It’s a very professional business and they really do care about the staff. I would most definitely urge you to sign up with Pertemps if you are seeking a job in the education sector.

My consultant is an amazing agent. So reliable, business minded but also honest, hardworking and friendly.

From the previous agencies, honestly, I was not hoping for much.
But when my consultant came along, I found him a delight to work with. He was helpful, supportive and very understanding to my needs. 

Thank you for everything you have done for me. I cannot recommend the Pertemps agency enough.

Branden Ardestani – an inspiring team-player!

I liaised with Branden Ardestani from the Pertemps Education team in order to explore a career path in youth coaching. His professionalism and encouragement greatly inspired me to believe in my potential. He was especially patient and compassionate with me during a period of ill-health when I was greatly struggling. Branden supported me in every step of the process, and confidently answered any queries I had. 

Every correspondence was filled with uplifting enthusiasm, competent wise words, and clear to follow instructions. He’s a real asset to this company, and I’m sure he’ll continue to inspire many others seeking to support and teach a new generation of young people. Many thanks my friend.

This is my first experience of working for an agency and to be honest I was a little hesitant. However, Branden Ardestani has been so reassuring, attentive and helpful. He was very quick to pass on information, and to investigate any queries that I had. 

Brilliant service, thank you, Branden.

I have worked with Pertemps for a while and Branden is absolutely brilliant. He’s has been patient with me and looked into places which have been commutable for my needs as I’m a non-driver.

I will definitely use Pertemps again if I get stuck for work.

Branden was awesome. So supportive and effective – he managed to get me my dream job. I owe him big.

I’ve been at Pertemps for 3-4 months now and it’s been absolutely brilliant, My consultant is very understanding and accommodating. She goes above and beyond to help and she’s always at the other of the end of the phone if I need her. Pertemps is an amazing agency to work for.

My consultant has been absolutely amazing – so friendly and helpful. I would recommend Pertemps Education..

Pertemps Education is an amazing agency. 

I first met my consultant at a jobs fair and she had me signed up and in work fast and the help don’t stop there. 

I would recommend Pertemps to anyone looking for a role in education.” 

I felt very uncertain at the start of this year. I had left one school and was starting to work through Pertemps. 

Branden is friendly, informative and organised. His proactive and caring nature was clear from my initial meeting.

I would like to thank Branden at Pertemps, who met with me the day I applied for a role and was friendly, informative and organised. His proactive and caring nature is clear not only from the initial meeting (and the fact that I was working within a matter of days), but also from his weekly phone-call. He ensures I am happy in my role and gives me reassuring updates regarding the longevity of my current role and regarding future/back-up roles he has secured for me.

I found Pertemps Education online and they were very quick at responding to me, which is the first thing I liked. The process of joining was clear, easy and if I wasn’t sure about something I was able to get in touch and receive a response either immediately or always on the same day.

I was very clear with what I wanted in terms of work – it was my first time in my 14 year career trying supply/agency work and this was exactly the kind smooth and personalised service I wanted. Aimee found me work immediately that completely catered to my needs! I had lots of questions before I met the Deputy Head via zoom and Aimee was on hand constantly. She also arranged everything, all I had to do was click on the link and talk. The school has even been given useful information from Aimee first.

Branden has been an absolute pleasure to work with from the very first contact that was made. I had decided to leave education and pursue a completely different career, but realised that teaching was what I am passionate about.

Branden took the time to arrange an informal chat, he listened to what it was that I was looking for, the type of school I was after and the setting that would work for me. He was open and honest, and only discussed the roles he thought would match my skillset. Unlike other agencies, he did not try to downgrade my skills and experience by simply trying to fill a vacancy.

“Pertemps is a very professional, hard working employment agency. The consultants go that extra mile to get you the job.”

I work in schools and education as a facilities team leader – a caretaker in a primary school.

I am currently working as a Special Teaching Assistant in Bury St Edmunds, a job I am thoroughly enjoying.

I was introduced to this position by Branden who has played an important role in taking me through the smooth process during my time at Pertemps Education.
