Recruitment is complex…we make it simple

Finding the right person can be difficult, time consuming and costly.

Recruitment is complex…we make it simple

In today’s challenging and competitive job market, an advert alone may not be enough to find your next leader. Our experienced recruiters have the knowledge, skills and expertise to utilise every opportunity to attract and appoint the best candidates. We can manage and support you throughout the recruitment process, from defining the exact person you are looking for to targeting and placing the right people.

Attract the right talent

With a growing number of leadership vacancies and a diminishing pool of potential candidates, your advertising campaign needs to work hard to reach the right people. Our creative marketing partners produce high-impact adverts that will make your school stand out from the crowd.

Maximise exposure

A good advertising campaign only works if the right people see it. We manage your recruitment advertising in print and online, aiming to ensure your campaign achieves maximum exposure. We have a database of active jobseekers and can target the people who have expressed an interest in your area.

Ensure the right candidates apply

A high proportion of candidates who request application forms never actually fill them in. We actively speak to everyone who expresses an interest in your position and use our expertise to identify the very best candidates. We work closely with these candidates to make sure that they fully understand what the role involves and encourage the right candidates to apply. You will be surprised at how many of our successful appointments wouldn’t have applied without the support of our consultants.

Target the best leaders

Not all good leaders are looking to move. We search the education landscape for exceptional leaders and talk to them about your role. Even if they are not actively looking, they may consider moving if the right opportunity is presented to them. For each position, we generate a fresh search and build a list of potential candidates according to your exact requirements. We will also contact candidates on our existing database and network and can approach anyone you know who might be suitable.
