Not-for-profit Recruitment Agencies Directory

Not-for-Profit agencies and organisations represent a significant employment sector in the UK. Although wages in this area are not always as high as other industries, careers in Not-for-Profit fields are almost universally more rewarding and fulfilling, thanks to the philanthropic nature of the sector.

Much work in the Not-for-Profit industry involves travel, and a large percentage of available jobs are to be found in London. Wages in London also tend to be higher than those given elsewhere in the UK. A large proportion of not-for-profit work is politically motivated, and those with interest in Political Science tend to be especially drawn to the sector.

Not-for-Profit recruitment and salaries

The positions most commonly listed and filled by recruitment agencies involve research, policy work, and lobbying. But there are professionals needed in countless areas of the sector, ranging from fieldwork to administrative roles. Salaries typically start at around £14K annually for new entrants to the sector. Top-tier earners have incomes in the £40K range, however, and average salaries throughout the UK tend to be about £17-18K. The sector also offers a particularly high number of part-time, apprenticeship, and volunteer positions, all of which can be good ways for young professionals to gain industry experience and build their CV's by contributing to respected social institutions.
