WR Fundraising Recruitment are pleased and proud to be supporting our candidates and charity clients to perform at their best as they ‘hit the ground running’ in their new role by partnering with Sarah Tite Coaching Ltd to offer one-to-one coaching packages.
The driving force behind charities are their people and their leaders. Together they set the vision, champion the strategy, inspire, and manage the organisation through change or challenge. Leaders know when to seize opportunities, how to rally teams to work hard to drive the strategy and vision, and they understand the importance of supporting the mental wellbeing of their team, and themselves.
These expectations can be challenging, especially so if there are additional pressures in other parts of their lives, and as they step into a new role wanting to perform at their best. Coaching provides a safe, non-judgemental space in which fundraisers, who can often be isolated in their role, can openly discuss, explore, and find solutions to their challenges to open up the opportunities for lasting change.
Coaching can support people in many ways. Most importantly it helps to develop an environment of psychological safety, where individuals in teams feel safe to speak up with ideas, questions, concerns, or mistakes. Resulting in more innovation, better problem-solving and more successful teams.

Taking up Sarah's coaching as a new starter has really helped me to get the best start possible in my new role.
Joining the charity sector was new to me and with a newly formed role too, an external coach has been really helpful to help me better understand the dynamics, as well as hit the ground running.
During the sessions with Sarah, we discussed not only how I was finding the new role, but other challenges I’ve faced in my professional career, particularly since becoming a manager and leader. Sarah took time to work through experiences with me which in turn helped to provide validation and increased confidence in myself.
This has had an empowering impact in my new role, especially on the way I work day to day. I learnt quite a lot about myself in just a few sessions with Sarah, and I’m pleased to have had this opportunity to focus on my professional development.
