I work directly for a range of stakeholders in universities to add diversity and strength to shortlists.

The service provided is tailored to client requirements, and can include preparation and design of candidate materials, managing the response to advertisements, conducting the search, interviews with long listed candidates, background checks and taking up references.

This represents a cost-effective way to add the greatest value of the headhunting process, and allows for effective and responsive collaboration during the search.

Having worked for five London-based headhunting firms, I am familiar with FileFinder, Ezekia and Invenias. I adapt quickly to different ways of team working and styles of reporting.

In the course of work on hundreds of searches I have read thousands of CVs and covering letters. It takes thought and skill to craft an application that interests a panel to want to find out more. I enjoy advising candidates about how to present their experience and motivation effectively. Building on this, I now offer support to individuals preparing applications for specific roles, as well as how to maintain a general master CV ready to tailor as opportunities arise.
