About Peridot Partners
We’re an executive search firm working across third sector, education and membership sectors to transform leadership and inspire change.
Placing purpose and quality before profit, Peridot Partners is a values-led third sector executive recruitment agency transforming leadership and inspiring change with organisations that have a social purpose.
We're a close-knit team of exceptional people and we’re proud of developing an ultra-flexible, empowering and fun culture.
We focus on long-term, deep-rooted relationships that bring added value.
We challenge the status quo about what makes good leadership, and this is reflected in our exceptional clients, candidates and close community of change-makers.
Since 2009, we have worked with organisations that want to grow and who appreciate and value good leadership, across the public, third and private sectors.
This means we spend our time recruiting people for executive and non-executive roles for leadership teams and boards across education, fundraising and the third sector.
About the role
Small and medium-sized charities make up over 96% of the charity sector. They play a crucial role in society, enriching communities locally, nationally, and globally.
At Peridot, our aim is clear: to partner with these remarkable charities and support them in appointing outstanding leaders to maximise their potential and impact. We’ve spent over 15 years building successful relationships with charities of all sizes. Over the past year, we’ve developed a specialist practice for small and medium charities, showcasing a strong track record. We’re now set to expand this practice, seeking a Senior Consultant to enhance our team and further strengthen our presence.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for someone with experience in recruiting charity leaders, ideally at the managerial, executive, or board level. Strong experience in developing and winning new business is also essential. A personal connection to a small or medium charity, whether as an active volunteer, Trustee, or through prior work, is highly valued.
Experience matters, but values are paramount to us. Our driving values are: Be brave, Bring rigour, See the bigger picture, and Sense and respond. We uphold these principles in all we do. We are respected for our high standards, quality service, and commitment to creating social impact. We build long-term, meaningful relationships that add real value to our partners.
We are committed to doing the right thing, with a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Joining Peridot means becoming part of a team of exceptional people. We pride ourselves on our flexible, empowering, and enjoyable culture. We are proud to be a Living Wage Employer and a Fostering Friendly Employer.
