OUR HISTORY WITH ASSOCIATIONS
We have recruited for associations for 30 years and have a deep understanding of how membership bodies work and the recruitment challenges they face. We understand the yearly cycles (Board, membership renewals etc) in membership-based organisations and the complexities involved in limited budgets and funding.
We nurture long term relationships with our associations clients and visit them regularly in their offices. These visits ensure we acutely understand your staffing needs and challenges and can articulate your culture and environment which enhances our recruitment process and significantly increases the chances of a successful placement.
We have one associations client who has worked with us for 15 years and view our relationship as a genuine partnership, presenting at attending yearly fairs they host giving advice to delegates. In 2019, our Associate Director worked onsite with them 1 day a week for 3 months when their hiring manager was on secondment. Lizzie helped cover internal recruitment and this is what they have to say about our partnership: “I wanted to express to you my sincerest thanks for adjusting your operating model for us and allowing Lizzie to support us with this role. I understand it is not always easy to make exceptions and for that we are truly grateful. In all honesty, it is just an absolute pleasure working with Lizzie – whether it be a quick temp role or this tricky perm role – her level of commitment and engagement never waivers. As I am sure you are aware, she is an absolute gem!”
