Mission & Values
Our Mission:
Shaping a brighter future through education
Our mission is twofold; to shape a brighter future through education by connecting schools - across the UK and international schools globally - with exceptional educators worldwide, and by inspiring people of all ages to become agents of positive change.
Our Story
Our story is built on three core experiences that shape our mission and values at Jackson Hayes.
First, as seasoned professionals in education recruitment and international school leadership, we’ve seen how ethics and integrity can sometimes take a backseat to profit. We founded Jackson Hayes and created the Education Consultant License (ECL) with a commitment to elevate industry standards and drive out those who fail to prioritise safeguarding.
Second, during Co-Founder Joshua’s time in Ghana, where he volunteered as a Primary teacher in a remote village. He saw firsthand how one class can inspire a child’s future. His interest in astronomy sparked curiosity in his students, showing him the transformative power of education.
Third, during our Founders’ trip to Vietnam, where the natural beauty of the country was overshadowed by overwhelming plastic pollution. As environmental advocates, we realised that education is the most powerful tool to cultivate environmental stewardship and inspire creative solutions to global challenges like the plastic waste crisis.

Our Values
Everything we do is underpinned by our values. We live and breathe them every day, and they guide each decision we make.
Safeguard
The safety and wellbeing of students is our top priority. We are committed to the highest safeguarding standards, ensuring that every candidate we place has been thoroughly vetted. By prioritising safe learning environments, we contribute to creating schools where every child can learn and grow safely with confidence.
Integrity
Trust is the cornerstone of everything we do. We conduct our business with transparency, honesty, and professionalism. Whether we are working with schools, colleges, or education professionals, we maintain the highest ethical standards. Our reputation is built on delivering what we promise and acting in the best interest of everyone involved.
Gratitude
We appreciate the educators, institutions, and communities we serve. We show gratitude by providing exceptional service, recognising the hard work of teachers and school staff, and ensuring our clients feel valued every step of the way. We believe that a culture of appreciation fosters stronger relationships and better outcomes for all.
Impact
We are driven by the profound impact we can have on both education and the world around us. Every placement we make in schools is an opportunity to enrich the lives of children, empower educators, and shape the future of learning. But our commitment to impact extends beyond the classroom. We believe that creating a better world for children means caring for both their educational environments and the planet they inherit. That’s why we have started our B Corp journey and partner with eco-conscious organisations. By making responsible choices today, we contribute to a healthier planet for tomorrow’s generation.
Drive
Nothing worthwhile is easy. Our team is dedicated to excellence and continuous improvement. We work tirelessly to stay ahead of industry trends, provide innovative solutions, and meet the evolving needs of schools and educators. This relentless drive ensures that we deliver the highest level of service and maintain our position as a trusted leader in education recruitment.
Collaboration
Education is a collective effort, and so is our approach to recruitment. We believe in the power of working together, whether it’s partnering with schools to understand their unique needs or collaborating with educators to match them with the perfect role. By fostering strong relationships with our clients and candidates, we create a community committed to educational success.
