Have you conquered the corporate world and do you feel inspired to join a not-for-profit organisation? Do you want to add value to an organisation that will also add value and purpose to you? Well read no further people…
If you want to rejuvenate your career and values and to live a more purposeful life, then switching to the NFP sector could be your calling. But you must be warned, it is certainly not challenge-free, not for the faint-hearted and not an easy ride (often misconstrued perceptions). It could be compared to moving to a foreign country where the language and culture is foreign! But don’t let this discourage you, many people who make the move never look back. Maybe you won’t either!
Before jumping into the sector blind, here are some key areas that are worth making a mental note of:
NFP organisations have access to salary sacrifice a broad range of everyday expenses and they are often way ahead of their corporate colleagues in job sharing, working from home, leaves of absence, and flexible hours.
I specialise in recruiting for business transformation, project services and change management for the NFP sector so if you are up for the challenge and fancy doing something new and perhaps more meaningful than before, then pop me a call.
