Matchmakers for changemakers

Charisma Charity Recruitment specialises in helping charities and not-for-profit organisations to improve their impact through purposeful placements.

Recruitment solutions

It takes a special kind of person to work for a non-profit. Your dream candidate isn’t in it to get rich quick. They don’t want the fame or the glory. For them, it’s not just a career, it’s a calling.

But how do you find them? Charisma.

We’re a leading recruitment consultancy working with UK charities and not-for-profit organisations. We first started doing this around the time Will Young won Pop Idol, so we’ve got experience coming out of our ears.

We’ve matched all kinds of candidate to all kinds of role at all kinds of organisations. Over the decades, we’ve gained a deep understanding of your sector by helping small social enterprises with a handful of staff, through to supporting large charities with hundreds of employees.

No two consultancy projects are the same, which is what makes our job so interesting. What you need depends on your organisation, your ethos and your situation. So, we start by getting to know you. We ask lots of questions. Then we can get to work finding your perfect match. Perhaps you need an intern at the start of their charity career, or for an experienced CEO to bring decades of knowledge. Either way, we’ll help you find the one.

The word “passion” gets thrown around way too freely these days. A bit like “genius”. But you can’t work in the charity and not-for-profit sector without it. Passion, that is. A sprinkling of genius helps too, to be fair. We genuinely give a hoot about the work you’re doing, so we offer a free consultation. Once we know what you need right now and in the longer term, we can plan a way forward.

Why Charisma?

We’ll find your perfect person
Decades of experience in the charity and not-for-profit sector means we can snout out talent like a pig snouts truffles. We’ll find candidates with the skills and experience you’re looking for, so you can get on with changing the world.
We care about our people
Our business is all about people, and our own lovely humans are Charisma’s biggest strength. We invest in their development because we want them to continue being industry leaders. And to keep them happy, naturally. We offer flexible working because when we’re at our best, we can help you do incredible things.
We keep our ears to the ground
We stay up-to-date with all the latest industry trends, developments and other goings-on to give you a full consultancy service. Nothing gets past us. So, we can advise on your legal and ethical duties, and also give you the heads up on what’s working (and what’s not) in the sector.
We care about all people
You can only be truly innovative when you’ve got a diverse workforce bringing unique perspectives to the work you do. We tear up the tick lists and reach out to a wide range of candidates, regardless of their background.
We partner with you
This isn’t a one-way thing. We work alongside you, get to know you, and learn how you work. That way, we can find the best candidates to match your unique needs. The end goal is to put your organisation in a stronger position; we meet you where you are now and go from there.
