We often hear from candidates from the corporate world eager to transition into the for-purpose sector and work with organisations that offer meaningful and fulfilling work. We understand this desire to make a shift to more values-aligned work and have loved being part of many successful career transitions.
Despite the ups, downs and lockdowns, we are encouraged by the level of enquiries we receive about engaging us to lead recruitment assignments in the ‘for purpose’ sector. We note a higher demand than this time last year for leadership roles, particularly across fundraising and marketing. Does this mean recruitment has bounced back or some balance is returned?
In partnership with Carli Phillips from Corporate Wellbeing Hub, Gembridge is hosting more FREE Wellbeing Webinar for the “for Purpose” or nfp industry to help us all be mindful of our wellbeing as we head into a new financial year. Carli will share her expert advice, share tools for self-care to prevent fatigue and burnout and remind you to put on our own oxygen mask first, so you can help others.

If you’re looking for opportunities in the ‘for purpose’ sector, there are many great websites for job-seekers that wish to make a difference and contribution towards social impacts or causes close to their heart.
Many jobs don’t get advertised and it is predicted that over 50% of opportunities are appointed without advertising, directly via the hidden job market. So it’s definitely advised to go beyond traditional and advertised job-search options and leverage your network.
