As specialists in charity and HR recruitment, Moxie People understand the unique challenges that recruiting within the third sector attract.
However, by leveraging our deep market knowledge and strategic recruitment approach, Moxie didn’t just solve Kaleidoscope's recruitment headache, we provided them with top, senior HR talent to propel their mission forward.
We always advertise ourselves, however the calibre of people we got through the door for us was pretty low. Previous agencies we had used for less senior roles didn’t feel suitable and we appreciated Moxie knowing the market in Wales, as this is something which is important to us.
Kaleidoscope encountered several issues in their search for the right candidates:
Strategic Recruitment Partnership
We conducted a comprehensive market-wide consultation on salary expectations and initiated a benchmarking exercise, which revealed a significant disparity in Kaleidoscope’s offering. After reviewing the findings with Martin, he used this data to realign the salary structure with industry-specific standards.
Leveraging our extensive talent pool and deep expertise in HR and charity recruitment, we proactively identified and engaged candidates with the right mix of experience and values. Our targeted approach and strategic recommendations enabled us to provide Kaleidoscope with a diverse range of applicants, all of which were invited to interview. We then collaborated closely with the Director of HR, Emma, to ensure that only the most suitable candidates were shortlisted for interviews.
Emma (our previous HR team member) did a lot of the work with Moxie. She was very impressed… and she's not an easy person to impress which spoke volumes.
Understanding the pressures that Kaleidoscope were under, missing an integral role within the business, and the risk of their service provisions being hampered, Moxie ensured a swift yet thorough recruitment process. Our dedicated HR recruitment team presented three well matched candidates to Kaleidoscope on a quick turnaround, minimising the time and resources spent on interviewing and pressure on the team.
As an expert in HR recruitment, its crucial to have a consistent and collaborative approach throughout the recruitment process. Not only does this align expectations, but it helps us to identify the perfect candidate for the organisation. In Kaleidoscope’s case, this is exactly what we did and it proved to be a huge success!
The recruitment campaign led to two successful appointments:
The successful partnership between Kaleidoscope and Moxie highlights the importance of specialist recruitment expertise in the charity sector. By understanding and addressing specific challenges, Moxie provided a solution that will have a lasting impact on Kaleidoscope’s operations and its service to the community.
