Calling All Science Superstars!

Special Focus: Physics Teachers Wanted!

Are you a teacher of Science with a passion for physics? Ready to make atoms dance, gravity feel exciting, and inspire the next generation of scientists? If you're as obsessed with particles as Einstein or love experimenting like Curie, we have the perfect opportunity for you!

Our education recruitment company is seeking dynamic, enthusiastic Science teachers—especially those with a Physics specialism—for a large number of client schools across the area. Your classroom could be the one where lightbulbs literally go off (okay, metaphorically, but still!).

What You’ll Do:

Deliver engaging Science lessons that ignite curiosity and foster a love for learning.
Focus on Physics (make forces fun, electromagnetism electrifying, and quantum theory... well, not terrifying!).
Support students of all abilities, helping them to achieve their academic best.
Contribute to the science department with creativity, collaboration, and a bit of scientific magic!
What You’ll Need:

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) – you’ve got the certification, we’ve got the schools!
Enhanced DBS check – because safety comes first in every experiment.
EWC registration – to teach in Wales with the force of a proton in the nucleus!
Perks of the Job:

Great variety – You’ll be placed in schools that fit your teaching style and career aspirations. Whether you’re looking for temporary or permanent roles, we have something to suit.
Supportive team – We’re with you every step of the way, from initial application to your first day in the classroom.
Flexibility – Choose assignments that fit your schedule (you get to experiment with your work-life balance, too!).

Ready to Take Your Teaching Career to the Next Level?

Whether you're a seasoned Science teacher or a newly qualified one who’s ready to make waves in the physics world, we’d love to hear from you!

Apply now and let's get your career trajectory soaring faster than the speed of light

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Quantum Computing Job Applications (UK Guide)

Quantum computing is one of the fastest-evolving fields in technology, blending physics, mathematics, computer science and engineering. Roles in this space — from Quantum Algorithm Developer and Quantum Software Engineer to Quantum Research Scientist and Quantum Hardware Specialist — are highly sought after, and hiring managers are exceptionally selective. Because quantum computing is complex and multidisciplinary, recruiters and hiring managers look for clear, concrete evidence of relevant expertise and impact right at the start of your application. They often decide whether to read your CV in detail within the first 10–20 seconds, based on a handful of high-value signals. This guide breaks down exactly what hiring managers look for first in quantum computing applications, how they assess CVs and portfolios, and what you can do to optimise your application to get noticed in the UK quantum job market.

Riverlane Jobs in Quantum Computing: UK Guide for Job Seekers (2026)

If you’re looking for Riverlane jobs in quantum computing, you’re aiming at one of the most important layers in the quantum stack: quantum error correction (QEC). In simple terms, Riverlane focuses on the software, methods & tooling that help quantum computers produce reliable results despite noise. That matters because as quantum hardware scales, the ability to correct errors becomes the difference between “interesting experiments” and “useful quantum computing”. This guide is written for UK job seekers who want to understand: what Riverlane does (in job-seeker language) the roles they hire for the skills that map best to their work how to tailor your CV & LinkedIn how to prepare for interviews how to find & land Riverlane vacancies in the UK You do not need to be a quantum PhD to have a realistic pathway in. But you do need to understand the problem they’re solving & position your experience around it.

The Skills Gap in Quantum Computing Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Quantum computing stands at the frontier of technological innovation. Promising breakthroughs in areas as diverse as cryptography, materials discovery, optimisation and machine learning, quantum technologies are shifting from academic research to early commercial deployment. Governments, defence organisations, finance firms and tech innovators around the world — including in the UK — are investing heavily in quantum talent and capability. Yet despite this surge in interest and investment, employers consistently report a troubling trend: Many graduates with quantum computing qualifications are not prepared for real-world quantum computing jobs. This isn’t a reflection on students’ intelligence or effort. Rather, it reveals a persistent skills gap between what universities teach and what organisations actually need. In this article, we’ll explore that gap in depth — what universities do well, where programmes fall short, why the divide persists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge that gap to build successful careers in quantum computing.
