History
Way back in 1990, Charity People started life operating from south London base, with grants from The Prince’s Youth
Business Trust and the London Enterprise Agency. Its aims were – and still are – to promote the sector as a great place to
work, to attract the most talented and committed candidates, and to help charities recruit more effectively. A lot has
changed in the last 25 odd years - our team has grown significantly, we’ve moved offices, got a website, drunk over
100,000 cups of tea and placed over 30,000 people into a new job. Despite all this, our values, aims and principals remain
the same.
People tell us that we do things a bit differently from other recruitment consultancies. By that we think they mean the pride
we take in our consultative, collaborative approach (there’s no hard sell with us). The fact that we are exceptionally good at
our jobs, professional, dedicated and reliable yet relaxed, informal and friendly. We all understand and have first-hand
experience of the sector we work with and are motivated by the positive impact our input can have. We work flexibly, see
every situation and person as unique and consequentially tailor our approach to fit.
We are a successful recruitment company but at our heart we are a bunch of good people who love doing a great job.

Liz Monks' appeal - a very special individual as
our Managing Director and Founder David Lale
explain
Charity People are committed to giving back to
the sector. We take this incredibly seriously and
are always on the look out for new ways in
which we can strengthen our input
One way we encourage our team to get involved in
the sector and give back is by asking each of our
employees to donate 3 of their working days to a
cause they feel strongly about
How we give back
We have also been up to all sorts of fun stuff...
