Education

Furst Search's Education Group is experienced in filling senior level assignments for Proprietary Secondary Education, Community Colleges and Private Colleges and Universities.

Our search process will be customized to fit the needs of your organization. To accomplish this, Furst Search will actively identify and recruit people who are challenged and successful in their current positions.  Typically, these individuals are not actively seeking a new position; and thus, they are not accessing the Internet or reading the “careers” section in “The Chronicle of Higher Education” – and, they will not respond to your employment advertisement. 

Utilizing an active recruitment process ensures that your organization will be presented a slate of candidates who are accomplished professionals in their educational field.

In addition to our action-oriented search process, we offer senior level search consultants who possess career experience in higher education accompanied by the requisite credentials.  Our search consultants will work closely with your existing leadership team, your Board of Trustees and your Search & Selection Committee to attract the level of talent your organization deserves.

Current and recently completed searches include the following positions:

  • Chief Operating Officer
  • Vice President Academic Affairs
  • Corporate Director of Admissions
  • Chief Financial Officers
  • Campus Presidents 

To learn more about how we can assist you in securing exceptional talent for your organization, please e-mail or contact us at (815) 229-7800.
