Recruitment guides

Standard Content

The Chartered Institute of Fundraising has produced a series of recruitment guides to support the fundraising profession, and more widely the whole sector, to become a more equal, diverse and inclusive profession where we recruit for “culture add”, not “culture fit”.

The Change Collective guides have been produced for the fundraising community to help them consider the actions and decision they can take to achieve a more diverse fundraising workforce. The guides include an additional element to reflect on recruiting during the coronavirus crisis.

Each guide has been developed with expert advice from recruitment agencies and EDI consultants, and lived experience from fundraisers.
