Great opportunities to join our specialist recruitment teams

We're always on the lookout for great new talent and right now we have some excellent opportunities for consultants to join our teams of recruitment specialists.

Harris Hill are one of the UK's leading charity recruitment specialists and it's an exciting time to be joining the business. We've been recruiting for charities and not for profit organisations for almost 30 years, and 2016-17 was our most successful year to date, which we believe is down to the strength of our teams and their relationships with our clients and candidates, backed up by continuous innovation and investment in our recruitment methods.

Naturally this year we're aiming even higher, with clear direction, plenty of enthusiasm and a brand new company strategy, supported by an extensive range of incentive schemes and rewards (not to mention our brand-newly refurbished offices in Vauxhall) to help us achieve even more.

We're also closely involved with the charity sector, working with more than 700 organisations per year and as lead sponsors of major inter-charity events like the London Charity Softball League, currently gearing up for this year's grand finals!


Current openings


While we're always keen to hear from great new talent in any area, right now we have particular opportunities available for consultants to join our teams specialising in fundraising and marketing & communications roles.

You'll take ownership of all roles within a particular area of fundraising or marketing, which means you'll get to know the organisations and the candidates working in that field in great depth, becoming a real expert in your specialism.


So who are we looking for?


One of the great things about Harris Hill (we say modestly) is that we're a genuinely diverse bunch where there's no single type of person you need to be, background you need to have, or style of working we insist on.

That said, for the current openings you'll either need to have some experience within recruitment, or operational experience as a fundraiser or marketer within a charity or not for profit organisation, so that you'll have an understanding of the sector and the roles you're likely to be recruiting for, as something to build on.

But you'll get plenty of support from our super-friendly teams and, if you've got the drive to succeed, plenty of opportunities to build your desk and really flourish in your new role.



Want to know more or apply?


Head over to our 'Work for us' pages, where you'll find much more about working for Harris Hill and the reasons we believe it's a great place to be.

Meanwhile if you'd like an informal conversation about our current openings in fundraising and marketing recruitment, please contact faye.marshall@harrishill.co.uk and we'll set up a convenient time for a call.

We look forward to speaking with you!
