What our clients said about us: 

We at Rare Disorders New Zealand had been trying without success to recruit someone to head up from scratch our first ever individual giving programme. It was proving to be a difficult role to fill using our own resources so we reached out to Tilda. She not only helped us to craft the job description to make it attractive to great candidates but also used her networks and knowledge of the sector to introduce us to two excellent applicants - one of whom has recently accepted our offer of employment. It was an ideal outcome and I'm happy to recommend Tilda to anybody with similar recruitment requirements. - Chris Higgins, Chief Executive Rare Disorders New Zealand

Tilda brings joy to what is typically a difficult process. Her combination of straight talking pragmatism and relentless optimism helped Variety navigate the recruitment process without issue. Tilda always goes above and beyond. In a candidate-scarce market, Tilda was able to reach out to her network, which was essential to helping us secure the very best person for the role. I would not hesitate to recommend Tilda to anyone recruiting in this space. - Susan Glasgow, CEO Variety New Zealand

I highly recommend Tilda for fundraising recruitment assistance. I am an experienced fundraiser who was looking to move and join the New Zealand fundraising industry. Over the course of a year, Tilda was my partner as we hunted for the perfect match for my skills and interests. She is well connected and was always able to provide insight on a job and its organization. Tilda also went above and beyond, connecting me with several other Americans already fundraising in New Zealand. In short, she is intelligent, thoughtful, and hardworking — the perfect addition to your team!  - Ross Imbler, Advancement Services Manager, University of Canterbury
