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

Quantum Computing Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Quantum computing is exciting. Headlines about qubits, quantum advantage and futuristic breakthroughs can make it seem like the preserve of physicists in high-tech labs. But for career switchers in their 30s, 40s or 50s in the UK, the truth is both broader and more practical: there are real job opportunities connected to quantum computing that don’t require you to come straight out of a PhD programme. This article gives you a grounded UK-focused reality check on quantum computing jobs, what roles genuinely exist, which ones are suited to career switchers, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining realistically takes and how to position your experience for success. Whether you’re coming from IT, engineering, project management, research support, operations, compliance or even sales & communications — there are ways to pivot into this fast-growing field if you approach it strategically.

How to Write a Quantum Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Quantum computing is no longer confined to university labs and research papers. UK companies are now actively hiring quantum software engineers, physicists, hardware specialists, cryptographers and commercial leads as the sector moves closer to real-world deployment. But while demand for quantum talent is rising, many employers are struggling to attract the right candidates. Roles attract either underqualified applicants who see “quantum” as a buzzword, or highly academic researchers who are a poor fit for commercial environments. The problem often isn’t the candidate pool — it’s the job advert. Writing a strong quantum job ad requires a very different approach to traditional tech hiring. Quantum professionals are highly specialised, sceptical of hype and acutely aware when an employer doesn’t truly understand the field. In this guide, we’ll break down how to write a quantum job ad that attracts the right people, filters out the wrong ones and positions your organisation as a serious, credible player in the quantum ecosystem.

Maths for Quantum Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them) Linear algebra essentials, probability, complex numbers, basic optimisation.

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or ML engineer looking to move into quantum computing or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in physics, maths, computer science or engineering applying for quantum roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions often say “strong maths” but rarely spell out what that means in practice. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree’s worth of theory to start applying. For most graduate & early-career roles in quantum software, quantum research engineering & quantum algorithms, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in four areas: linear algebra, probability, complex numbers & basic optimisation. This guide turns vague requirements into a clear, job-focused checklist. You will learn what to focus on, what to leave for later & how to build small portfolio outputs that prove you can translate the maths into working code.
