WR is a boutique fundraising recruitment specialist and we have a record of placing candidates where others haven’t, due to our high levels of service, personal attention and specialist knowledge.
We work only on fundraising positions, delivering a far more tailored and consultative service than the larger and more generic agencies. We are passionate about this, and aim to deliver exceptional value to every client and candidate we work with.
Being small but mighty, our size allows us to work flexibly with our clients and find successful solutions to recruiting more difficult roles.
We passionately believe we do what we do as well as, if not better, than anyone else out there.
We are a family run consultancy, founded by Neil & Sarah on the back of over 20 years in the recruitment industry, working with charities up and down the UK.
Prior to specialist charity recruitment, they worked in the commercial recruitment sector.
At odds with their experience of how the recruitment industry treats people – commoditising humans and reducing interaction to a myriad of targets, they set out to create something special.
WR Fundraising Recruitment is a consultancy with a difference.
We work closely with our candidates and our charities to find the right jobs for our people, and the right people for our jobs while providing ongoing support for people to develop in their new jobs - Increasing confidence, supporting wellbeing and being there for candidates on their career journey.
Neil co-founded WR with Sarah and has forged a career in recruitment for the past 20+ years. He has led several successful recruitment companies, mainly in the third sector and still works in the business alongside an amazing team.
He is a family man with 2 kids and a standard bearer for 90’s indie music.
I’m a former customer services manager who’s made the move to fundraising recruitment!
I’m looking forward to taking my interpersonal skills and dedication to providing the highest levels of service, and applying them in a new and exciting environment, while expanding my knowledge of both recruitment and the third sector.
In my spare time I am an indentured servant to a cat as well as doing a little bit of “work” as a film extra.
I have been working within charity recruitment since 2011, having carried out many successful recruitment projects for a wide range of UK charities.
Since becoming a mother to two beautiful yet sassy girls, I can now be found more behind the scenes on a part time basis, but I can’t help keeping my toes dipped in on a daily basis.
Outside of WR I’m a massive music fan, in particular Foo Fighters, and love to see live music as much as motherhood allows. I’m very lucky to live with my girls and fiancé in Poole, and we enjoy all that seaside living provides us.

I joined WR Fundraising Recruitment in August of 2021 and it was the best move I ever made!
Coming from the hospitality sector was a big change but it was definitely the right move – I started as a consultant and I am now the Fundraising Recruitment Manager, enjoying managing our growing team.
I love helping our wonderful candidates finding their perfect job and helping our growing list of clients in placing their vital roles. In my spare time I love to cook and going to the gym (just starting out so give me time).
