Why you should choose Academicis as your specialist headteacher recruitment agency

Our proactive approach as a headteacher recruitment agency makes it possible to identify the higher echelon of the profession, generate interest and then nurture potential candidates through to application.

An intelligent approach

Advertising simply doesn’t work the way it used to and will only be seen by around the 15% of eligible candidates who are actively on the market. Exceptional candidates aren’t looking but can be uncovered via the search process in which we excel.

Expertise

Recruitment is an infrequent process for senior leaders, governors and Trusts, whereas it is our daily business and has been for 10 years, with just under 1000 successful appointments behind us.

Specialisation

We only work with the Education sector, from Diocese to Trust, village school to inner city all-through, SEND school to University colleges. We understand individual and nuanced requirements like no one else in the field, and crucially know where to find candidates with the relevant experience and ethos.

Robust and safe

Our highly trained delivery team handle all the vetting, reputational analysis and data checks before you interview. You can be sure the process is consistent, defensible and transparent so that decisions made are incontrovertible and garner the confidence of the community

Fixed fee and guaranteed outcome

We offer an inclusive end-to-end solution to save you time, money and drive the best results. A market-leading 99.3% of appointments are made first time, but in the rare event to the contrary there is nothing further to pay for a rerun. We guarantee to find your leader

Your next school leader;
Your next career move

Our proactive approach makes it possible to identify the higher echelon of the profession, generate interest and then nurture potential candidates through to application, which in turn increases your chances of recruiting the right person for your School – The first time.
