International NGOs, local foundations, development agencies, philanthropic organizations and social enterprises play a large role in Indonesia, working on health, education, climate, livelihoods and humanitarian response. They need leaders who can manage complex programs and donor relationships, operate with strong governance and still keep the mission at the center of every decision.
As a non profit recruitment agency, Talent Hunts Indonesia uses executive search and permanent recruitment to hire country and program directors, finance, grants and compliance heads, partnership and fundraising leaders, and the monitoring, evaluation and operations specialists behind credible programs. Our work often connects with our sustainability and education practices.
Our headhunters map talent across international and local NGOs, UN agencies, foundations, corporate CSR teams and the private sector, and assess motivation and values as carefully as experience.
Our Recruitment Approach
Non-profit leadership roles depend on the mission, funding model and governance of the organization. Before approaching candidates, we work to understand:
- Mission, program areas and target communities
- Funding model: institutional donors, philanthropy or earned income
- Board, headquarters and regional reporting lines
- Program locations and field travel requirements
- Compliance, safeguarding and donor requirements
- Compensation structure and benefits framework
Candidates are assessed through our HUNTS Framework™, with a focus on Underlying Drivers and Stakeholder Acumen, so you know who is driven by the mission and can work with donors, governments and communities. Read more about our methodology.
