Connecting transformative leaders to change-making organizations
Leading NGO Recruiters
NGOs play a critical part in campaigns aimed at mobilizing citizens at the community and national levels. Organizations in the nonprofit sector help develop societies and improve communities by addressing hunger, assisting during natural disasters, providing medical care, and promoting equality and fairness in the justice system. As such, it is even more important to find a transformative leader with the capability to thrive and make a difference.
As a premier executive recruitment agency, Keller helps nonprofit clients find the right person with the skills and track record to enhance the overall performance and success of the development sector. We pride ourselves in having a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the NGO sector, allowing us to source the best candidates from diverse backgrounds who meet the needs of our clients and their organizations.
What We Do
At Keller, we have a long history of understanding the issues and the unique complexities of the NGO sector. Our team of professional NGO recruitment experts matches clients from local or international organizations with superb candidates who can excel in leadership roles and meet the client’s sustainable development goals and staffing needs.
We do this through:
Assessment
At Keller, we don’t dive into the search process without establishing what our client needs. Our team takes the time to understand our clients’ requirements and what their organization’s goals are before we proceed to search for the top talent to fill the gap.
During the assessment phase, our team conducts extensive evaluation, background checks, and reference checks on each potential candidate. Once our assessments are complete, we present clients with the shortlisted candidates.
Talent Acquisition
Our search process is extensive and involves utilizing our extensive network of contacts and expertise to compile a list of candidates who meet the requirements of the job, no matter how complex the hiring brief.
