From my initial contact with Luke and Kat via LinkedIn, working for James Ray Recruitment has been fantastic. I felt valued and supported from Day 1. I am Primary based so Kat (being the Primary Consultant) was the person I consulted with the most. She … More listened to my situation and any concerns or worries that I had. I had work the day after completing all checks but I also wasn't pressured into accepting a role I didn't feel comfortable with or I couldn't do.If anyone is thinking about Supply, I would thoroughly recommend speaking to James Ray Recruitment.

I came across a job vacancy for an invigilator advertised by James Ray in DecemberI called them to find out more information regarding invigilator opportunities.Kat answered the phone. I explained to her what I was after.She listened and took all my requirements … More on board.She was very helpful and made me feel so comfortable.She said that I needed to update my CV and submit it. I was a bit unsure as I'm not confident at selling my achievements . She picked up on this and said that if I update it and email it across to her, she would look at it. Following on from this, Hayley Heeley from the office called me. She asked me a few questions and gave me a lot to think about regarding vacancies in education .Hayley was again just as helpful and caring. She then booked me in for an interview with her.I strongly recommend James Ray Recruitment to everyone.The staff are extremely helpful, kind and respectful.A great example of first class customer service.

I've had an amazing time as a supply teacher with James Ray Recruitment from start to finish. Registration was easy, clear communication throughout, received pay correctly and on time every time. Kat and Luke were my main contacts and were great … More getting me all the work I wanted in a range of lovely schools. It was exactly the experience I hoped it would be, I worked day to day in a range of schools as I requested and was given opportunities to look at longer term roles also. I always recommended them to others looking to become supply teachers, and will continue to do so in future. When I moved on to a permanent role they were genuinely happy for me and I'd be more than happy to work with them again in the future.

Rachel dealt with my situation in a really efficient, straight talking and understanding manner. My job move was slightly unusual but this did not prevent her finding me a role that I am really happy in. I was kept informed at all stages and she checked … More in with me regularly to see if there was anything else she could do. I will use her again in the future, if needs be.

Right from the start Luke and his team have been great! They have been personable and welcoming from the off. All the admin at the beginning was a breeze. Luke has a great group of schools - some of them excellent! It’s clear he builds up good relationships … More with these schools which means you will nearly always get work.
