Education

Lindauer earns high marks from higher education clients for our ability to identify talented professionals for preeminent colleges, universities, and research institutions.

Our Consultants understand the intersections of faculty and research; enrollment management and admissions; student and residential life; diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; fundraising and finance; operations and marketing; analytics, data, and more. We understand how to explore whether an educational leader, frontline fundraiser, or department administrator has the skills to handle complex environments, guidance for new and existing programs, and uplift and inspire community engagement.

We assess management skill and finesse, vet ability to create and drive strategy, and discern builders from maintainers.

Our global database allows us to engage the best candidates, overcome marketplace obstacles, and successfully conduct multiple searches simultaneously for a single institution.

Our team also recognizes the critical role of diverse leadership that has an eye for inclusion and access across the educational field. Lindauer continues to be a champion for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in higher education since the firm’s founding. Today, our team continues its leadership in the advocacy for equity and anti-racism work with boards, leaders, hiring managers, search peers, a trusted network of industry advisors and consultants, and an extraordinary roster of talented professionals.
