Interim Management Recruitment Services

Our highly-reputed and widely recognised interim management service provides schools, academies, colleges, federations, special educational needs provisions, third party providers and Local Authorities with immediate resource in the form of highly-skilled education leaders for short-term, medium-term and long-term assignments. We also provide portfolio consultancy support.

Our approach is both thorough and rapid. It recognises that each client is unique and therefore takes into account the bespoke nature of your individual requirements. Situations we have provided interim support to include:

  • Turning around a failing school
  • Supporting a weak/new leadership team
  • Filling a gap created by a late resignation
  • Long term sickness/maternity cover
  • Change Management
  • Restructuring/ federating process.

Our service incorporates a dedicated focus from a recruitment consultant specialising in interim management solutions and access to a network of interim leadership candidates who have chosen interim management as a career choice and not just a stop gap option.

Our candidates are closely vetted in line with safeguarding requirements and have been screened using criteria based interview techniques. Interim leaders often need to be over qualified for the roles they go into and have a proven track record in the roles we submit them to.

Our extensive national database means we can provide at short notice:

  • Headteachers/principals/consultant heads/advisory/associate heads
  • Deputy Heads
  • Assistant Heads
  • Leadership Consultants/Learning and teaching consultants/advisory consultants
  • Heads of Faculty/Department/Trouble- shooting consultants
  • Heads of School/Curriculum Managers
  • Inclusion Managers/SENCOs
  • LA consultants

Our experience has shown us that the changing face of the education sector is causing a growing demand for excellent interim leaders. It is our belief that this need will continue and increase. Our commitment is to support this need with our outstanding interim recruitment solutions.
