Our Journey

2020
The Genesis of Quality in Education

Riley Personnel was born from a vision in 2020, amidst a world of rapid change, with a singular focus: to redefine the standards of quality and continuity in the classroom.

Our inception was not just the start of a company but the beginning of a promise—a promise to deliver educational excellence to schools across London and the UK.

Named affectionately after the founder's son, Riley, our mission has always been deeply personal. We sought to collaborate exclusively with educators of such calibre and dedication that our founder would trust them with Riley's own education.

2021
A Commitment Carved
From a Name

From our very first day, the ethos of Riley Personnel has been clear: to work only with outstanding educators who embody our core values of integrity, excellence, and dedication.

We understood the profound impact that consistent, high-quality teaching staff could have on both the educational journey of students and the overarching success of schools.

This understanding became the cornerstone of our approach, guiding us to vet meticulously and support each educator joining our ranks.

2024
Growth Through Excellence

Over four years, Riley Personnel has evolved from a fledgling startup into a beacon of excellence within the educational recruitment sector.

Our focus on permanent and long-term roles has not only set us apart but has also cemented our reputation as specialists who understand the unique needs and aspirations of both schools and educators. Our growth is a testament to the trust and confidence placed in us by the educational communities we serve.

Today, we are proud to stand as a leading specialist educational recruitment company, yet our core mission remains unchanged—ensuring quality and continuity in education.
