Founded by an Act of Parliament in 1854 to offer a liberal education regardless of background or religious affiliation, Sydney Grammar School is an independent, academically selective school for boys. Its enrolment spans two preparatory schools at St Ives and Edgecliff (Pre K/Kindergarten to Year 6), and the senior school at College Street in the centre of Sydney (Years 7 to 12).
Sydney Grammar School offers its pupils a broad and liberal education. This encompasses academic study and also a wide range of co-curricular activities including debating, sport, outdoor education, and the arts. Its aim is to prepare future leaders with a wide and deep knowledge of the world, past and present, and to foster their intellect, curiosity, and commitment to public service.
With the appointment of the current Head, Dr Richard Malpass, to a leading school in Singapore from mid-2025, the Trustees of Sydney Grammar School now invite applications for the role of Head for commencement from July 2025, or later by arrangement.
The successful candidate will be someone who possesses excellent interpersonal skills, intellectual liveliness and rigour, strong ethical values, and an affinity with the aims and ethos of the School. Just as critical is proven leadership experience to manage an educational institution of this size and public significance.
Please obtain information about the position by emailing the consultant assisting the School, Kathy McLean, of Fish Nankivell, as soon as possible on kmclean@fishnankivell.com with a basic CV and a short email explanation of your interest in the role. She will then forward the Candidate Brief.
Applications will close on Saturday 15 February 2025. A concurrent search is being conducted.
Because of current Australian visa regulations, generally only candidates with Australian/New Zealand residency or citizenship are eligible to be appointed to Principal roles in Australia. Potential candidates are advised to undertake their own research into this.
