The Massachusetts Department of Higher Education is seeking an executive search firm or consultant to recruit, screen, and recommend qualified candidates for the position of Massachusetts Commissioner of Higher Education.

This is a Small Business Purchasing Program procurement with an estimated annual value of $250,000 or less. Award selection is based on best value, evaluating factors such as the firm's track record in recruiting diverse leaders, experience with state boards of higher education, and understanding of the political climate.
