Workshop:
Winning that SES job

Executive Intelligence Group’s signature workshop has been revamped for 2026, while maintaining its design to give you practical, insightful information on how SES roles are recruited, how you can best position yourself for these roles, and prepare your applications, as well as gain invaluable interview practice. The workshop will cover:

Day One

  • SES recruitment in today’s world
  • Assessing your readiness for the SES
  • Guest Speaker
  • Personal reflection and group discussion

Day Two

  • Developing an excellent CV
  • Targeting your pitch
  • Managing the interview process
  • Interview practice
  • On the spot feedback on a ‘mock interview’

Plus you’ll get:

  • a review of your CV and pitch by our lead facilitator and executive coach
  • 15% off further executive coaching packages of 3 or more sessions

This practical, two-day program, is run as a small confidential group session that enables participants to share and obtain information to help them become more competitive in future SES recruitment rounds. The program includes a mock interview with a selection panel and participants receive immediate feedback on their performance.

Key presenters, Helen Innes, Rosemary Deininger and Lauren Searson-Patrick have a wealth of knowledge spanning more than 20 years in SES recruitment and/or the APS, including at the SES level. They are in a unique position to offer insights into SES recruitment: how it works, how you position yourself, the opportunities and the pitfalls, what to consider for your CV and pitch, and how to prepare for interview. Their advice is practical and contemporary and they are held in high regard across the APS. Their personalised approach will give you insights, rarely found elsewhere in the market, to move forward in your career and achieve your full potential.
