Since 2013, Academicis has made more than 2,300 senior appointments across schools, academy trusts and dioceses. We work exclusively in education, recruiting CEOs, Executive Headteachers, Headteachers, senior school and trust leaders, governors and trustees.

Whether you are looking to make a permanent appointment or need experienced interim support, we recruit across all these roles, connecting education organisations with the people who can make a real difference.

Appointing a senior leader, governor or trustee is an important decision, and one that demands the right expertise, networks and approach. We manage the entire recruitment process, from proactively identifying and approaching exceptional individuals who may not be actively looking for a new opportunity, through to shortlisting, vetting, referencing and background checks ahead of interview. We ensure every process is thorough, fair, consistent and defensible.

Our fixed-fee approach provides complete cost certainty and comes with a guaranteed outcome. In the unlikely event that a search needs to be repeated, we continue working until the right appointment is made, at no additional cost.

Equally, taking the next step in a senior education career is a significant decision, particularly when balancing the demands of an existing role. We offer confidential, straightforward advice, taking the time to understand your experience, ambitions and options. Through our extensive education networks, we can introduce you to opportunities that align with your aspirations, often before they are widely advertised.

Whether you are an education organisation looking to appoint or an individual considering your next career move, we would welcome the opportunity to speak with you.
