Founder & CEO - John Connolly

For 15 years in the UK & Australia, John created & led award-winning teams and helped transform multiple Russell Group and Group of Eight universities' commercial operations.

His career includes sales & leadership roles at the Australian National University, UTS, University of Sheffield, and Aston University.

After seeing institutions and agents waste millions of dollars and thousands of hours of effort cycle after cycle John decided to create a better way to agree on commission terms.

Inspired by successful global marketplaces like Uber, Amazon, and Airbnb, John envisioned Feezy to revolutionise the global education market with responsive, real-time deal-making, improving outcomes for both education providers and agents worldwide.

Co-Founder & CXO - John Chatterton

John brings 20 years of marketing team leadership in the UK and Australia, implementing a customer-centric approach to driving growth.

A former Chief Marketing Officer for Macquarie University, he went on to launch an innovative Agent Mystery Shopping research service and in-culture international recruitment campaigns for Australian universities.

With a deep understanding of the needs and challenges faced by both education providers and agents, John was naturally drawn to Feezy’s groundbreaking approach to addressing longstanding industry issues.

 

Unlocking growth from fixed agreement terms

Vision

Feezy was founded on the belief that traditional fixed agreement terms between education providers and agents lead to poor outcomes for both parties.

Our vision is to disrupt the status quo and create a global marketplace where innovation, fairness, and efficiency drive student placements, empowering everyone involved to achieve more with less friction.

Mission

At Feezy, we believe that doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different outcomes is the definition of insanity. That’s why we’re committed to providing a platform that fosters direct agreements, maximizes commissions, and builds stronger, strategic partnerships—because hope is not a strategy, but innovation is. 

Our mission is to transform the way education agents and providers connect and collaborate by challenging traditional practices, eliminating unnecessary intermediaries, and introducing smarter, more effective solutions that deliver real results.
