Further testimonials

Alongside our growing collection of Google reviews, we've had some great feedback in other forms from charities we've worked with:

Harris Hill are great to work with - they are personable, reliable and honest.

We have successfully recruited a number of candidates from them and they have been a fantastic asset to our organisation.

Beth Norden, St Mungo's


I have always been impressed with Harris Hill: their consultants are tenacious and never give up until they find you that ideal fundraising candidate.

I like the way they understand me and the charity to ensure that I get the right candidates. They provide a professional and comprehensive service and really know the third sector.

Leo Visconti, Queen Elizabeth’s Foundation for Disabled People


Harris Hill were a joy to work with. From meeting Hayley through to filling two corporate fundraising roles I was really impressed with her approach.

Hayley really took the time to understand our needs and interrogated our job specifications in a way that demonstrated her clear knowledge of the sector but also the type of candidates we could reasonably expect.

We were very happy with the candidates put forward for interview, and have been really pleased with our eventual hires. The whole process was without stress and I’d work with Harris Hill again and recommend them to others.

John Owens, Movember Foundation


I’ve been on both sides of the table when working with Harris Hill; they supported me brilliantly when being recruited at Breast Cancer Now.

They offered me lots of great advice and feedback throughout the process which led to me being really prepared and focused in my interviews.

They've also been great when I’ve worked with them to recruit staff; they have really listened to the type of person and skills required for my recruitment which has led to lots of successful candidates over the years I’ve worked with them.

Gavin Spencer, Sense


​I was recruited to my new post through Harris Hill, and as a prospective candidate I found them to be friendly and very professional.

I subsequently used them to recruit someone to our team, and found them to be very engaged and supportive of what we as an employer were looking for in a staff member. I am pleased to say we found a great candidate.

Harris Hill have gone above and beyond in their recruitment support and I would definitely use them again.

April Clifford, Transport for All


​Harris Hill has been a fantastic recruitment partner to Livability for many years now.

They have helped increase our employee brand in the fundraising sector, represented the charity in an engaging and clear way to prospective candidates, and attracted stellar talent to the Livability fundraising team.

Account management has been great; from visiting our national office to get a sense of the working culture to quick and responsive communications, it's been a pleasure working with the Harris Hill team.

Lisa Hemsley, Livability
