Search: Chief Enrollment Officers

Hardwick-Day assists colleges and universities in the identification, recruitment, and selection of senior-level enrollment officers and occasionally other leadership positions.

Jim Day and Carol Stack bring networking power and operating expertise to the search process. Together, they have more than 50 years of high-level experience in admissions, financial aid, college finance, and higher education marketing and public policy—more than half of that in senior roles on campuses. Both Jim and Carol have extensive search experience, in both consulting and staff roles, for a variety of positions.

Hardwick-Day begins an enrollment search with a thorough operational assessment of the enrollment program. This assessment, conducted over two or three days, goes far beyond eliciting campus views of what characteristics would be most valuable in a new chief enrollment officer.  This pre-search assessment determines, in great detail, how well institutional investments in the enrollment operation are optimized and how results and execution compare to best practices nationally. It provides specific guidance for the skills and experience needed in a new chief enrollment officer, as well as a blue print for what the operation needs to work on during and after the search to deliver the class.
