It's not all about London...

It was the 18th century poet Samuel Johnson who famously said 'When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life'.

He might have had a point, but there speaks a man who's never been to the Elephant & Castle shopping centre.

There are plenty of excellent things in London of course, not least a myriad of major charities, who for reasons like practicality or personnel are often headquartered here in the capital. But you don't have to battle the big smoke to find a truly rewarding role with an outstanding organisation.

This week we're proudly supporting #UKCharityWeek, so we thought we'd highlight some of those great opportunities you can currently find through Harris Hill, elsewhere around the UK.


regional roles


►► 2018 update. This is archive content from December 2017 so unfortunately the vacancies below are now closed. However you can always find the very latest opportunities (and select by location) on our jobs homepage.

                        


If we haven't got a regional role that's right for you right now, don't despair.

While London certainly dominates our listings we're always posting more positions from around the country too, particularly in areas like community fundraising, marketing, communications and digital, and within our Executive Search business for roles like senior directors, CEOs and chairs.

In the meantime, good luck with your job search, let us know if we can help of course, and if we ever happen to find you something on the Cornish coast, we promise not to all come and stay at once. Honest.

Open to all: inclusive recruitment in the charity sector

Given that so many work with marginalised or disadvantaged groups of people, you’d expect charities to be more aware than most of the barriers to employment such groups often face, and the need to be more inclusive. Which research suggests that by and large, they are. However research also suggests that in terms of using that awareness to build a more diverse workforce, they’re lagging behind s...
