01 — What it looks like

A real discount, stated plainly

Verified non-profits get forty per cent off our placement fees — nine per cent instead of fifteen. It's the same network, the same human vetting and the same people. The only thing that changes is the number.

02 — The problem

What's actually hard about hiring on a mission budget

01 — The salary gapYou're hiring against commercial salaries you have no way to match, for roles that need exactly the same skills.

02 — The churnYour last contractor was a volunteer who left the moment their day job got busy, and took the context with them.

03 — The fake discountAn agency quoted you commercial rates, called it a non-profit rate, and wouldn't show you the standard one.

03 — The product

What you get

Six things on the platform that exist specifically for non-profits.

01

40% off placement fees

Nine per cent instead of fifteen on every placement, applied at placement rather than invoiced back later.

Pricing
02

One-time verification

Send your registration once. We check it, it goes on file, and the discount applies from then on.

Verification
03

Mission-aligned talent

Operators who have told us they want mission work are flagged in your matches, so you're not selling the cause from scratch.

Matching
04

The same vetting bar

No separate, cheaper pool. Identical human review against the same top-1% bar.

05 — Honestly

Is this for you?

We'd rather lose you here than three weeks from now.

This fits if

  • You're a registered non-profit, NGO or B Corp
  • You're hiring for a funded, defined role
  • You can pay a market-adjacent rate, just not a market fee

This doesn't if

  • You're looking for volunteers or pro-bono work
  • The role has no funding attached yet
  • You need someone to work for equity or exposure

06 — Questions

Asked by non-profits

How big is the discount?

Forty per cent off our placement fees — a nine per cent fee instead of fifteen. It's applied at placement, not claimed back afterwards.

What counts as a non-profit?

Registered charities, NGOs, foundations and certified B Corps. We check registration documents once and then it's on file.

Is the talent pool different?

No — it's the identical network with the identical vetting bar. We additionally flag operators who've said they want mission-driven work.

Do the people take a lower rate too?

That's between you and them, and plenty do. The fee reduction is ours and it's unconditional — it doesn't depend on talking anybody down.

What if we're not registered yet?

Talk to us anyway. Fiscally sponsored projects and pre-registration organisations are handled case by case.
