What we deliver

Finding talent

The world’s most pressing problems need the world’s best talent.

We’re here to help you find capable, qualified, and motivated individuals that are a great fit for your team. We take three approaches:

  • Active headhunting lets us identify qualified individuals that may not otherwise have applied.
  • We leverage our networks to find candidates from other applicant pools (including recommendations from other high-impact organizations).
  • We review candidates from directories like the High Impact Professionals database.

Hiring talent

We also help you run open hiring rounds. We provide hands-on support throughout the process to help you:

  • Establish role responsibilities
  • Create a job description and application form
  • Share the role on social media and job boards
  • Build an applicant tracking system
  • Communicate with candidates
  • Create rubrics and conduct screening calls
  • Create assessments and mark schemes
  • Assess candidates at various stages of the process
  • Pay candidates for work trials

Once you’ve made an offer, we can manage the logistics — like contracts, NDAs, and right-to-work checks.

How it works

1. Kick-off

We meet to discuss your needs and expectations, and determine the level of involvement you’re looking for. We’ll advise on setting up robust systems and reducing bias in the process. We take a flexible approach for each hiring round.

2. Preparation

We collaborate to create an attractive job ad and GDPR-compliant application form. We research the best ways to attract candidates for a variety of roles — and conduct personalized outreach, targeting communities and individuals with the relevant skills and interests.

3. Hiring round

We can project manage the hiring round. This includes screening applications based on CVs and other predefined criteria, communicating with candidates, scheduling interviews and distributing tests. Based on your needs, we’ll also coordinate and evaluate assessments in order to secure the right candidate.

Case studies

We source talent and manage hiring rounds for a number of high-impact organizations.

The Forecasting Research Institute (FRI) develops forecasting methods to improve decision-making on high-stakes issues.

We supported FRI with a hiring round which allowed them to hire their first Operations Lead.

Sara is such a pro. She was always organized and prepared and made the entire process as painless for us as possible. We are also very happy with the ultimate hire.

Michael Page, Former CEO at the Forecasting Research Institute

Impact Academy runs programs for entrepreneurs, researchers, and others who want to solve global problems and create flourishing futures.

As Impact Academy scaled it looked to develop its in-house operational capacity. We supported the organization with a hiring round for an Operations Specialist and helped the team secure their first operations hire.

Sara is a delight to work with. She’s extremely responsive and always over-delivers. I have very much appreciated Sara taking the time to provide tips and best practices derived from her experience, have highly benefited from it. Sara has been the driving force in our hiring efforts for an ops specialist, anticipating every aspect of the process. Having someone more experienced taking the lead was a great learning experience.

The support on the hiring process has been excellent! And I've found all the communication to be clear, prompt, and helpful.

Arkose aims to reduce risks from advanced AI through field-building activities.

Arkose has grand ambitions for AI safety field-building, but had just one full-time staff member. We helped Arkose hire an Operations Lead by collaborating to design assessments and mark schemes, and communicating with candidates throughout the process. The Operations Lead has been able to take on a range of responsibilities, including  surveys, calls, and supportive programs for researchers interested in contributing to AI safety.

Would recommend (and have already recommended) — this was great. It was awesome how fast this whole thing happened, and how well-organized it was and smooth and adaptive to my needs!

Vael Gates, Founder of Arkose
