A Clear Strategy to Help You Secure Your Role Outside the Classroom
You have experience.
You have leadership.
You understand pedagogy, curriculum, stakeholders and impact.
But translating outside of classroom feels confusing.
You are not alone.
At RecruitHer, we support experienced educators who are ready to transition into EdTech and education adjacent roles with clarity, confidence and strategy.
This is not generic career coaching.
This is structured career strategy built around the EdTech market.
Does This Sound Familiar?
- You are applying for roles but not hearing back
- You are getting interviews but not converting offers
- You are unsure which job titles actually fit your experience
- You feel stuck between product, customer success, consultancy, training or partnerships
- You are told you are “great” but someone else was “a slightly better fit”
- You are overwhelmed by LinkedIn advice about networking
You are not lacking ability.
You are lacking positioning and strategy.
Why Educators Struggle to Break Into EdTech
The EdTech sector values your background. But only if it is framed correctly.
Without the right positioning:
You can be seen as “just a teacher” rather than a sector expert.
Your curriculum knowledge can be overlooked.
Your leadership experience can be misunderstood.
Your AI or digital strategy exposure can be underplayed.
The difference between rejection and progression is rarely competence.
It is alignment.
What We Do at RecruitHer
We offer a structured, six session career strategy programme designed specifically for educators moving into EdTech.
It is about bringing you closer to securing your role in the EdTech sector through clarity, positioning and execution.
Across the programme, we focus on:
1. Clarity
- Defining the exact roles you should be targeting
- Narrowing job titles to one or two realistic directions
- Identifying where your experience gives you a competitive edge
2. Positioning
- Translating education language into commercial language
- Strengthening your CV and LinkedIn profile
- Highlighting high value experience such as AI, digital transformation, curriculum design or stakeholder management
- Building one coherent professional identity
3. Strategy
- Understanding what EdTech hiring managers are actually prioritising
- Mapping out companies that align with your background
- Developing a focused networking approach
- Preparing strategically for interviews, including mock interviews
This is structured. Intentional. Market informed.
Real Outcomes We See
Educators who work with us typically experience:
- Clear direction instead of confusion
- Increased interview invitations
- Stronger interview performance
- Greater confidence articulating their value
- More aligned opportunities
- Faster progression toward their EdTech goal
This is a process. It can feel uncomfortable at times. You may need to step outside your comfort zone, experiment with positioning and test new approaches.
But that is how the muscle is built.
And that is how results follow.
We Are Not Just Coaches
RecruitHer is also active in the EdTech recruitment space.
We see:
- What skills are in demand
- Where AI and digital experience are being valued
- Which roles are genuinely open
- How senior candidates are differentiating themselves
If there is a live role that aligns with your experience, we will absolutely put you forward.
We also share relevant job descriptions and opportunities that may not be obvious through standard searches.
This market proximity matters.
Who This Programme Is For
This programme is designed for experienced professionals who are serious about transitioning into EdTech.
It is for you if:
- You have senior or middle leadership experience within education
- You understand curriculum, strategy, stakeholder management or digital transformation
- You may have some exposure to corporate or commercial environments
- You are ready to take the leap into EdTech or education adjacent roles
- You are willing to invest financially in your next move
- You are open to stepping outside your comfort zone
- You are ready to improve your work life balance and take back control of your time
- You want structure, clarity and accountability
This is for professionals who are capable but need sharper strategy.
Who This Is Not For
This programme is not for you if:
- You are curious but not ready to move
- You are not willing to take action
- You want someone to “fix it” without you doing the work
- You are not prepared to experiment with positioning and refine your approach
- You are uncomfortable stepping slightly outside your comfort zone
- You are not ready to invest in your transition
Transitioning into EdTech requires intentional effort.
You will need to:
- Do the research
- Test new positioning
- Practice interviews
- Build visibility
- Take strategic action
What Makes This Work
The people who see results are the ones who:
- Show up prepared
- Implement between sessions
- Apply the strategy
- Reflect and refine
- Stay consistent
It can feel uncomfortable at times.
You may need to:
- Have conversations you have not had before
- Present yourself differently than you have in education
- Apply for roles that stretch you
- Rework how you describe your value
But that is how the muscle is built.
And that is how you move closer to securing your role in EdTech.
If you are experienced, ready, serious and willing to take action, this programme will give you structure, strategy and momentum.
If you are still testing the idea of leaving education, it may not be the right time yet.
When you are ready, we are here.
