About us

Who we are

We’re an executive search firm working across third sector, education and membership sectors to transform leadership and inspire change.

Placing purpose and quality before profit, Peridot Partners is a values-led third sector executive recruitment agency transforming leadership and inspiring change with organisations that have a social purpose.

We’re a close-knit team of exceptional people and we’re proud of developing an ultra-flexible, empowering and fun culture.

We focus on long-term, deep-rooted relationships that bring added value.

We challenge the status quo about what makes good leadership, and this is reflected in our exceptional clients, candidates and close community of change-makers.

Since 2009, we have worked with organisations that want to grow and who appreciate and value good leadership, across the public, third and private sectors. The strength of our organisation comes from our cross-functional networks, our exceptional research team and our experience attracting people from all sectors to organisations with a social focus.

We recruit to boards, executive positions and specialist functional roles such as fundraising, finance, and marketing and communications across a range of sectors, from social justice and health charities, foundations, grant-making organisations and think tanks to awarding bodies, training providers, schools, multi-academy trusts, colleges and universities, and student unions.

What clients say about us:

“The Executive Team recruited by Peridot are fantastic! The team are one of the best I have seen and have successfully taken on the challenge of an organisation facing insolvency and led a turnaround in our fortunes, and into a successful merger that will safeguard further education in the city of Brighton.”

- Chair of the Corporation at Greater Brighton Metropolitan College

Our culture and values

We're driven by our values:

Be brave
- We champion and challenge in our own individual ways to improve outcomes for ourselves and our clients.

Bring rigour - We’re thorough, thoughtful and speak up for what’s right.

See the bigger picture - We build real partnerships and work together for long term success.

Sense and respond - We respond in creative and meaningful ways to what’s needed.

Our intentions are clear: to achieve the best outcomes for our clients, our candidates, our people and our business. We are known for third sector executive recruitment underpinned by high standards, quality service and creating social impact. We develop long-term, deep-rooted relationships that bring real value to our partners across socially focused sectors.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Diversity at our heart

We do not believe in throwaway statements about diversity. Instead, diversity is at the heart of everything we do and is crucial to our success, reputation, and the organisations and people we work with.

We understand that it is not good enough to simply not discriminate and we must do more to create positive change. With this in mind, we are proud that we have been actively working to become an Anti-Racist and more inclusive organisation.

We recognise that unconscious bias exists and must be minimised. We have put processes in place to manage them.

We have a position of influence as a recruitment company to make our positive contribution to change the systems that perpetuate discrimination, and with that comes a responsibility to do better.

We work tirelessly to ensure we lead inclusive campaigns and projects that can encourage all members of society to apply and know that they will be treated with decency and respect.

We support equal opportunities in employment and oppose all forms of unlawful or unfair discrimination based on gender, age, ethnic or national origin, religion, sexual orientation or disability.

We believe that a diverse not for profit sector will provide better leadership to accelerate positive change in society. We are proud to have an exceptional track record of leading inclusive recruitment campaigns that enhance diversity of leadership teams and boards.

As a recruitment partner, you can expect us to:

Constructively challenge you if you have exclusive and restrictive criteria in your role profiles.

Ensure the advertising materials for your role use inclusive language and imagery.

Promote your role within sector-specific networking forums wherever possible (e.g. women, global ethnic majority, disabled and LGBTQIA+ networks).

Put diversity at the heart of the projects we are undertaking when talking to your staff and board to ensure we are reflecting the people and communities you work with and for.

Challenge inappropriate behaviour, practice and comments where required.

Make reasonable adjustments as needed.

 

Our commitment to building diverse organisations starts with us, and we are proud that women, LGBTQ+, disabled and people from ethnic minorities consider Peridot a great place to work.
