Higher Education

The higher education sector presents a unique set of challenges to its administrators. Your institution cannot be operated like a traditional business, yet it must remain sustainable and valuable, just as a traditional company must. At Gallagher's Human Resources & Compensation Consulting practice, we have nearly 40 years of experience partnering with colleges and universities all over America to help solve their higher education-specific challenges.

We can assist you with compensation consulting through position compensation and specification development, pay equity studies to determine internal and external market competitiveness, large-scale organizational change management, performance management, and organizational governance assistance and training. We specialize, for example, in faculty compensation. We know that pay equity is key to your ability to attract and retain faculty in order to remaining competitive. Our approach is to partner with our clients to ensure the development of comprehensive compensation and human systems that support your organizational strategy. We consider it of the utmost importance that you understand the systems you will administer and manage.
