Our Services » Recruiting Charity Specialists - Across the UK

When you’re looking to find staff these days, there are plenty of choices open to you as to how to recruit. Yet somehow, finding great staff has never felt so difficult. Great fundraisers – the ones that blend seamlessly into your organization, understand your ambitions and get results – are like gold dust. Finance staff who can work with limited resources , understand your grant funding and manage your restricted and unrestricted reserves, deal with your big City Treasurer and help you transform the way your organization functions are equally scarce. These people are charity specialists and we’re specialists in finding them for you.

Charity People launched in 1990. Since then we’ve helped over 30,000 people get some experience of working in the charity sector – a full or part time role, as a trustee or volunteer, or indeed as a temp. We’ve always had an open door policy – keen to help promote the sector as a great place to work and to help charities recruit for roles that have been tough to fill.

As the sector has grown, become more visible and as the recruitment industry itself has changed, our role has changed too. The plethora of recruitment channels open to charities – jobs boards, candidate attraction systems, online publishers, social and media , has just meant you have to work really hard to get your message out there. Or you can leave it to us.

By investing in state of the art recruitment systems, maintaining a constant presence in the places where these specialists gather – both online and in the real world – and by virtue of being around a long time and having a great reputation, Charity People has access to the best charity people about.

We work across all job functions and levels – HR, ICT, Finance, Fundraising, Marketing, Policy and Programmes. We work with INGOs, professional membership bodies, arts and education organisations, museums – you name it, we do it. We employ consultants who love working in the sector and are actively involved in it too.

We’re also experienced in recruiting large teams at short notice – last year we worked with V Inspired to recruit 120 staff over three months across the UK to launch their youth volunteering service, and 40 Case Worker staff over a similar timescale for Victim Support. So whether it’s a complex campaign or a talented individual you’re looking for help with, talk to us first.

We have consultants working on assignments across the UK so wherever you’re based, we can help.
