How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Nursery Assistant – Braintree

    TeacherActive are currently recruiting for a Nursery Assistant to join a welcoming and supportive early years setting in Braintree.

    This is a great opportunity for someone who is passionate about working with children and wants to develop their experience within a nursery environment. The setting provides a warm and nurturing environment where children are encouraged to learn, explore and develop through play.

    Your responsibilities may include:

    • Supporting children with activities and learning through play
    • Helping to create a safe, positive and stimulating environment
    • Supporting the day-to-day care of the children
    • Building positive relationships with children and staff
    • Assisting the nursery team with daily routines
    • Supporting children's individual needs and development

    If you are interested in the Nursery Assistant opportunity in Braintree, you will first have an interview with me at TeacherActive.

    If successful, I will then support you through the next stage of the process with the nursery and guide you through the onboarding process.

    In return, you can expect to receive:

    • A dedicated team of consultants available 24/7 to support you through the easy onboarding process
    • Guaranteed Payment Scheme (Terms and Conditions apply)
    • CPD courses and certificates through the My-Progression channel
    • Market-leading rates of pay
    • TeacherActive Referral Scheme – Receive up to £100 when you refer a friend (Terms and Conditions apply)
