Hiring for faith-based organisations requires more than simply aligning candidates to the technical aspects of the role. Whether as an HR leader or a finance professional, the cultural fit and shared values are as high a priority as the professional credentials.
At Broster Buchanan, we always take the time to listen to and understand a clients needs, which is why we were chosen as the faith-based recruitment to partner a Diocesan organisation with their hire of two key positions — one in finance and one in HR. The remit was to ensure that each candidate aligned not only with the job specs but also with the mission and ethos of the organisation.
This work was led by Lucy Rider, one of our most experienced consultants, with the focus on capability, integrity, cultural alignment, and mission fit. The client shared their experience in the testimonial below:
“Exceptional Service for Faith-Based Recruitment”
We recently partnered with Broster Buchanan to find new staff members for our finance and HR functions – and the experience was outstanding. From the initial consultation to the final placement, their team demonstrated a deep understanding of the unique needs and values of faith-based organisations.
Their consultants took the time to listen to our specific requirements, ensuring they presented candidates who not only had the necessary skills but also aligned with our mission and ethos. The candidates we interviewed were of high quality, and we felt confident in our selection.
Communication throughout the process was clear and timely, and we appreciated the personalised approach that made us feel supported every step of the way. Thanks to Lucy and Rachel, we have found two dedicated individuals who will contribute positively to our Diocesan community.
