Recruitment Case Study: Future Frontiers

Future Frontiers is an award-winning UK social mobility charity that partners businesses with schools to provide careers coaching programs, breaking the link between family income and educational outcomes while simultaneously developing corporate volunteers.  

ImpactEd Consulting was engaged as the strategic partner for Future Frontiers to appoint a new CEO, providing a full-service offering from role design to contracting.  ImpactEd Consulting are not a traditional recruitment agency, working exclusively with strategic partners, like Future Frontiers, where there is genuine alignment in vision and values - as they know this leads to the best outcomes. This approach always goes beyond standard recruitment, with our consultants immersing themselves into the organisation to truly understand their unique needs, culture, and challenges to ensures deliver them precisely the right talent.

ImpactEd Consulting then builds on deep education and charity sector knowledge and expertise of recruitment, learning and development at C-Suite and executive level, to find the best people in the sector. From reviewing job descriptions and crafting tailored interviews to sitting on panels or leading negotiations, every step of the recruitment process will be, and is, bespoke to requirements.  

With a deep commitment to providing diverse shortlists and actively addressing structural inequality throughout the process – this approach is integral to all aspects of recruitment rather than a series of bolt on activities. Working with social purpose organisations on a fixed cost, commission-free basis reflects our dedication to building long-term, trusted partnerships that nurture high-performing, positive and inclusive workplace cultures.

This approach resulted in a successful appointment and leadership transition. The Future Frontiers trustees working on the appointment said “It was a pleasure to work with ImpactEd Consulting. Their work helping us craft the role, sourcing candidates, managing the pipeline, building a robust selection process with us and guiding us through the process was excellent. ImpactEd Consulting was instrumental in guiding us to finding a brilliant CEO. Their work will have impact on our organisation and the young people that we work with for years to come”
