Who we work with

At Hire Purpose, we know that organisations can change the world for good. We believe that recruitment is more than filling roles, it’s about driving meaningful impact.

  • Companies that strive to embed ethical values into their operations, prioritising sustainability, responsible leadership, or contribute to supporting a wider community. They turn a profit, and they do so while leading with purpose.

  • Organisations that exist to tackle social, economic, systemic, or environmental challenges. They need exceptional talent that is driven by values to help amplify their mission.

With 35 years’ recruitment experience across the commercial and charity sectors, our team understands the unique challenges that purpose led organisations face in attracting and retaining exceptional people. 

That’s why our recruitment approach goes beyond standard hiring, we connect people with purpose.

We secure talent across:

✦ Business Development, Marketing & Fundraising

✦ Operations Management & Specialist Support

✦ Project Management, Product Design, & Delivery

✦ Research, Advocacy, & Policy

✦ C-Suite & Leadership

Whilst these are our specialisms, we also have intimate access to niche talent pools via The TEAM Network, which consists of a wide range of sector and industry specific independent recruitment specialists. If a campaign falls outside of our remit, we will always be transparent and signpost you on to one of our trusted referral partners.

No matter who you are looking to hire, we will ensure that you are supported.

  • We will secure your next employee, with longevity, alignment, and impact at the heart of the hire.

  • Whether you need a specialist individual for a time critical project, someone to cover a period of maternity leave, or someone at a day’s notice who can simply plug a resource gap in the short term, we have the resources and knowledge to support

Grow with intention

As well as working with larger organisations who have a clearly defined purpose, mission, and vision, we also love supporting start ups and smaller businesses who want to make a difference, but don’t know where to start. 

In April 2025 we begun our B Corp journey, and with our first hand experience delivering within values driven organisations, we can help you on your journey to becoming driven by purpose.

We know that getting the right people is essential to this process.

  • "Louis is one of the best recruiters I've worked with. Highly responsive and super professional, he listens closely to what's needed. Louis has helped me appoint some fantastic team members over the past year - many of whom have surpassed my expectations."

    - Sarah McMonagle, Director of External Affairs at Cycling UK

  • "Louis Eastwell is unlike any recruiter I have known. I worked closely with him for over a year on several recruitment campaigns; particularly hard to fill fundraising and IT roles. He really takes times to understand the wider context of each role, the priorities of the team, and the culture of the organisation. He’s a great sounding board on salary levels and recruitment in general, and he never over promises, under delivers, or bamboozles with sales speak. Louis sources quality candidates, on one occasion we declined to interview a candidate Louis put forward and he professionally challenged our decision - this individual is now making a great contribution to the organisation."


    - Liz Morgan, HR Manager at Re-engage

  • "One of the best recruiters I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Louis really takes the time to understand what our organisation is doing and who we are looking for. He has consistently provided strong candidates, and quickly too! I also really value our conversations about recruitment trends."

    - Michael Wilkinson, Assoc Director Digital & Innovation @ RNID

  • “I am delighted to strongly recommend Richard based on his exceptional passion for people and the recruitment process. Richard has a proven track record of successfully placing high-caliber candidates with a diverse range of clients, effectively contributing to their business growth. Richard's commitment to upholding sound business ethics and values is commendable. His consultative and solutions-focused approach, combined with a highly professional and friendly demeanour, ensures that clients receive an exceptional level of service.”

    - Kevin Harris, CEO at Contructing Excellence South West

  • "I’ve worked with Richard to recruit for two different organisations for positions such as CEO and a hard-to-find technical team player. He’s always delivered and been a pleasure to work with, helping us to think through what we’re really looking for in a candidate and providing us with great people."

    - Mike Horn, Owner at ASHA
