PK education doubles presence in the North West with new Manchester office

PK education, a recruitment company specialising in the recruitment of teachers opened its second office in the North West at the end of 2014.

Established in 2005 with a £20k bank loan by Paul Gallagher and Karl Housley the company has since grown to cover five regions in the UK.

The Manchester office is the seventh office in the company which now means a total of 29 people are employed across 7 offices.

PK education Director, Karl Housley said: “For us, the biggest challenge is the impact of the shrinking pool of fully qualified teachers. “This means that as an agency we have to try even harder to recruit the best teachers to be able to provide our clients with the best candidates for them.

“The easiest thing is coming to work, we work with genuinely great clients and candidates too so we’re passionate about finding them the right person for the job or the right job for the person.

“In all that we do, we hope that when we make an impression on somebody they agree that PK education is professional, responsible, dedicated and trustworthy.

“We’re also charitable!

“The business has done really well over that last ten years and we’ve decided that we want to give something back to celebrate our tenth anniversary.

“As a company we’re aiming to raise £10k for various charities throughout 2015 by taking part in a number of fundraising events.”
