TenSquare Leader and Teacher Recruitment Services

TenSquare’s on-the-ground experience building and leading some of the highest-performing charter schools helps us identify and place quality school leaders, teachers, and staff that meet the needs of each of our respective clients. We are the only firm that focuses exclusively on charter school placements; we draw on our extensive network of local and national education relationships to recruit top quality candidates; and our screening process is extensive—vetting takes place by former school leaders and veteran teachers, and candidates complete strategic exercises as part of the process.

We bring unique expertise and perspective to our work with individual charter schools serving students in Preschool through Adult Education. We are deeply familiar with the evolution of state accountability frameworks and we know how to identify administrators and teachers who are equipped to prioritize students’ academic, social and emotional growth while also meeting the increasingly high bar set forth by authorizers. Our comprehensive suite of services—including personnel sourcing, screening, placement, and on-boarding—allows clients to outsource the entire recruitment process.

Our Process

1. Assessment and Launch

We work with key stakeholders including school leadership, representative teachers and staff, and members of the board to understand the mission, history, organizational culture, role, and responsibilities. We use this insight to develop an ideal candidate profile and a position description to attract the right candidates.

2. Candidate Search and Cultivation

We create a customized sourcing plan that leverages our clients’ connections and our extensive local and national networks to achieve a pool of qualified candidates. We analyze top candidates with an eye towards core competencies and cultural fit, and provide clients with regular updates on the candidate pool.

3. Interviews and Assessment

We conduct extensive screenings of candidates resulting in top-quality finalists who are aligned with the school’s culture and mission. We collaborate with our clients to select candidates for interviews, design customized assessment materials, and oversee interview logistics including scheduling and travel.

4. Offer, Negotiations, and On-Boarding

We advise clients on competitive compensation and benefits packages to attract the selected candidate. We work with leaders on a plan to provide a seamless transition for the new hire.
