The Person
Behind
Franklin Oakes
A long standing specialist recruiter for Education & Healthcare, built on relationships, honesty and sector expertise.
​
For over 16 years, I've worked exclusively within Education and Healthcare, helping organisations find exceptional leaders and supporting professionals through the next step in their careers.
Â
Franklin Oakes was created to offer something different from traditional recruitment. A more personal approach. Honest conversations. Long-term relationships. And a genuine understanding of the sectors I recruit within.
​
Whether I'm supporting a CEO with an executive appointment or helping a candidate find the right opportunity, my focus is always the same, finding the right fit, not just making a placement.

It's About More Than Filling Vacancies
Recruitment is about people.
​
Every organisation has its own culture, every role has its own challenges and every candidate has their own ambitions. Taking the time to understand all three is what creates successful, long-term appointments.
Alongside executive search and permanent recruitment, I also support organisations with salary benchmarking, market mapping and recruitment consultancy, helping clients make informed hiring decisions and plan for future growth.
