CEO recruitment: toolkit for trust boards
Use our tools and advice to save time and ensure your board finds the right candidate.
Our CEO recruitment toolkit for multi academy trust boards covers every stage of the process. From agreeing a recruitment timeline to shortlisting and making an appointment, we've included practical advice and templates to help trustees find the right candidate.
The toolkit covers:
- appointing a trustee selection panel
- getting specialist recruitment support
- producing a CEO job description
- creating an application pack
- advertising the role
- shortlisting candidates
- interview questions
- post-appointment actions
Parts of this toolkit can be applied to other roles, including heads of school in a MAT and the senior executive leader in a SAT. You may also wish to refer to our toolkit for recruiting headteachers in a maintained school for information related to the different skills and qualities that are assessed when recruiting the leader of a single school.
