Dbm&Co

DBM&Co. connects global talent with the international development and philanthropy sectors through a broad network of industry experts. Leadership roles in these contexts sit at the intersection of mission, governance, funding constraints, and political reality, requiring judgement, sector knowledge, and a recruitment approach proportionate to role complexity and risk. The company offers executive search, recruitment, and HR consulting services, working with a network of recruiters bringing geographic and technical breadth needed to meet diverse client needs.

DBM&Co. operates with a human-centred approach, prioritising ethical and transparent communication and guiding clients and candidates through the entire recruitment cycle to ensure shared success. Services include end-to-end or adapted recruitment for C-level, Director, and senior leadership roles tailored to client context, culture, and internal capacity; longlist preparation (building and vetting tailored shortlists of qualified, aligned candidates for client-led selection); strategic sourcing identifying leaders whose values, curiosity, and adaptability align with organisation DNA; surge staffing helping organisations with sudden donor funding influxes requiring rapid team expansion; and referrals providing access to specialised development sector recruiters when capacity is limited.

Client testimonials highlight the founder's exceptional recruitment skills, passion for finding right people for specific roles, relentless thoroughness, and thorough understanding of organisational missions and staffing needs. The approach emphasises personalised attention combined with strong sector networks and ability to fill even the hardest-to-fill roles.
