Burman Recruitment

Burman's Team Building Day! To close out the quarter, on Friday we presented our vision, a celebration of our company’s wins and milestones, highlighting individual and team achievements along the way. We wrapped up by looking ahead, sharing our goals and key objectives for the next quarter as we continue to grow and strive together. 🎯 Afterward, we finished up early and headed to the pub to celebrate. 🎉 It was a perfect opportunity for the team to relax, recharge, and enjoy some well-deserved laughs together. #Burmanrecruitment #Ourvision #Teambuilding

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been visiting multiple universities to reconnect with existing candidates and clients while also building new relationships within my network. ✔️ Exploring new opportunities in IT within the Higher Education sector? ✔️ Looking to overcome recruitment challenges and find top talent? If you’re looking for support in either of these areas, let’s chat! Whether it’s a quick call, a Teams meeting, or an in-person catch-up, I’d love to understand your needs and help you achieve your goals in the months ahead.

Hard to believe we’re already a third of the way through the year! This post is a little different from my usual - specifically aimed at hiring managers in Higher Education space. Lately, I’ve been having conversations about the challenges in recruitment - high application volumes, but a gap in salary expectations, hybrid flexibility, and the right skillsets. Sound familiar? To help bridge this gap, I’m currently working with experienced and vetted professionals across key student services and academic operations roles, including: - Head of Registry - Head of Student Services - Associate Director of Student Services - Admissions Manager - Head of Admissions Each candidate is thoroughly vetted to ensure the right fit for both their career goals and the needs of institutions in today’s market. If you’re looking to fill any of these roles - or just want to chat about the current landscape, I’d love to catch up. 📩 Mitchell@burmanrecruitment.com

The poll results are in… and they spark an important conversation! Recently, I asked my network: "Do you see positive change in the Higher Education sector at present?" The results provide a fascinating insight into the current sentiment across the sector. - 68% of professionals expressed concerns about the challenges facing universities today. The common themes include budget constraints, cost-cutting measures, and ongoing structural changes. It is clear that these pressures are significantly shaping perceptions. - However, 17% of respondents see positive changes, while 15% remain undecided. This indicates that while there are challenges, there is also room for optimism and opportunity. I completely understand these concerns—I have spoken with incredibly talented professionals who have found the job market tougher than expected. However, from my discussions across the sector, I also see universities actively developing strategies to address key issues such as financial constraints, international student enrolment and student retention. The sector is evolving, and while the road ahead may be difficult, I believe that with innovation, collaboration, and resilience, positive change is possible. I would love to hear your thoughts—what is your perspective on the current state of Higher Education? Let’s keep the conversation going! 🚀
