How an engagement runs

The role determines the sourcing lens and the sector benchmarks. The workflow stays consistent: a values-led intake, a discreet search, a properly researched shortlist and end-to-end offer support. Same consultant from brief through onboarding follow-up.

1. Values-led intake

We arrive at the mandate call fluent in the sector, the funding landscape, the passive market and the sector-specific realities. Your intake time is spent on your organisation, not our education.

2. Discreet, values-first search

We approach our purpose-driven network and the active third-sector market discreetly. Client identity is withheld until you give express permission. Approaches to a candidate’s current employer are coordinated with you before we make them.

3. Ranked shortlist

Three to five candidates per mandate, properly vetted for values alignment, sector fit, DBS status and comp expectations. Written notes on each candidate and a ranked recommendation. We rank and explain.

4. Offer, DBS and settlement

We manage the interview process, coordinate feedback, structure the offer against sector salary benchmarks, chase DBS applications through offer stage and confirm start-date logistics. Follow-up at day 30 and day 90.

What sits outside our scope

Corporate roles that do not sit within a mission-led context. If you ask us for a bank trader or a hedge-fund analyst, we will refer you out. Depth of focus within the third sector is what makes our shortlists faster and better matched than a generalist desk can manage.
