ASSOCIATIONS

With a 30-year history of placing roles for Associations, we focus on finding the best aligned candidates to advocate for your industry and support your members

Established in 1994, Cox Purtell was founded on values of Honesty, Integrity and Respect. We're a business committed to ethical behaviour and treating people as we ourselves want to be treated. We're not interested in hard sales tactics, we want to support your business and we work with our clients as a partnership. In our industry, this is more important than ever.


We have recruited for associations for 30 years & have a deep understanding of how membership bodies work & the recruitment challenges they face. We understand the yearly cycles (Board, membership renewals etc) in membership-based organisations & the complexities involved in limited budgets & funding.


We nurture our long-term relationships with our associations clients & visit them regularly. These visits ensure we acutely understand your staffing needs & challenges & can articulate your culture & environment which enhances our recruitment process & significantly increases the chances of a successful placement.


Our experienced Associations team specialise in recruiting corporate support, associations specific & tech roles for associations in a permanent and temporary/contract capacity, and recognise that effective recruitment is more than simply matching job titles to job opportunities, it is ensuring the right cultural fit for longevity in the position.


We understand what is currently driving and motivating talent in associations and can provide valuable insights to our clients to assist them in filling important roles and retaining their existing talent.
