Education recruitment specialists

We place senior and mid-level operational and people leaders within universities and independent schools. Typical roles include general managers, HR managers, project leads, student services managers, and communications managers. We focus on operational leadership rather than academic or teaching positions.

Yes. We have placed leaders at Monash University, University of NSW, Western Sydney University, and University of Melbourne. We understand the governance frameworks, enterprise agreements, and stakeholder complexity that university leadership requires.

Yes. We work with independent schools on operational and people leadership appointments — HR managers, business managers, and senior operational roles. We understand the unique culture and governance of independent school environments.

Education institutions are complex, multi-stakeholder organisations with unique governance structures, employment conditions, and cultural expectations. Leaders need to navigate academic senates, student bodies, industry partners, and community stakeholders — while delivering on strategic objectives. We assess candidates for this specific type of leadership capability.

Most education leadership searches take 6–10 weeks from brief to offer. University appointments can take longer due to committee-based decision-making processes. We’ll give you an honest timeline upfront.
