About Prospectus
Prospectus is one of the UK’s longest-established recruitment consultancies specialising in the charity, not-for-profit and broader social impact sectors.
2026 will be our 70th anniversary since we were founded to partner with organisations working to improve lives, strengthen communities and drive systemic change. Our work spans permanent recruitment, interim management and executive search, supporting organisations at every stage of their growth and development.
We are proud to be a B Corp and a business that takes its responsibilities to clients, candidates, colleagues and society seriously. Commercial performance and social purpose are not in tension here; they reinforce each other.
Today, Prospectus is a values-driven organisation with strong market reputation, long-standing client relationships and ambitious plans for the future.
Our Values
Our culture is grounded in three core values:
Community
We believe in collective success. We work collaboratively across teams and disciplines, and we care deeply about the communities our clients serve — and the one we create inside Prospectus.
Collaboration
We operate in a non-hierarchical, trust-based environment where ideas are shared openly, expertise is respected, and success is owned together.
Trust
With clients, candidates and each other. We are transparent, principled and dependable, and we take pride in being a long-term partner rather than a transactional supplier.
These values shape how we lead and how we deliver executive search.
