Empowering Schools to Lead Their Own Executive Recruitment

With Dr. Paul Teys in Your Corner

Finding the right Principal/Executive leader begins with your team

Recruiting a principal or senior executive is one of the most important decisions a school can make — and the best outcomes happen when your school leads the process.

I offer a tailored Executive Recruitment Support Service that keeps your leadership and HR team in control while providing the strategic expertise you need to secure the right leader. This approach empowers your team while ensuring a professional and highly effective outcome.


What I Provide

Vacancy Consultation
Successful (and unsuccessful) hires often hinge on the depth and quality of the initial consultation.

Application Review and Screening
Using proven evaluation templates, I’ll help your team quickly identify top-tier candidates — saving time and ensuring a high-quality shortlist.

Video/Phone Interview Protocols
I’ll create structured interview protocols to help your team assess candidates consistently and confidently.

Panel Support
Your team will receive tailored evaluation templates and structured processes to support the selection panel’s decision-making.

Interview Strategy
I’ll develop targeted questions, leadership scenarios, and presentation themes to assess candidates’ real-world capability and alignment with your school’s values.

Panel Participation
I’ll provide expert insight during both rounds of interviews (if required) to ensure a thorough and balanced assessment of each candidate.

Final Recommendations
I’ll deliver a detailed analysis and strategic advice to help your team select the ideal candidate with confidence.

Contract Negotiations
I’ll provide contract templates that have been tested at board level and support your school in reaching a mutually acceptable set of terms and conditions.


A True Partnership — Your Team in Control

This isn’t a traditional recruitment service where the recruiter takes over, which is all too common in the Australian context. You lead the process — I provide expert guidance and strategic input that strengthens decision-making and ensures a successful appointment.

You know your school’s culture and values better than anyone — my role is to give you the tools, insight, and confidence to make the right choice.


If your school is preparing to recruit a new principal or executive and you’d like strategic support from someone who understands school leadership — please contact me.

Together, we can secure the right leader for your school’s future success.
