Recruiter – Nonprofit & Community Organizations

Northeast-Based | Remote (U.S.)
Commission-Based

Purple Unicorn Talent Solutions is seeking an experienced, relationship-driven Recruiter / Talent Partner to support and grow our work across the North American nonprofit and community-based sector.

This role is ideal for someone who understands how mission-driven organizations operate, is comfortable partnering with executive leadership and boards, and thrives in a highly relational, trust-based recruiting environment. You will play a key role in connecting exceptional talent with organizations doing meaningful, community-centered work.

About Purple Unicorn

Purple Unicorn is a boutique recruiting and HR consultancy partnering with mission-driven organizations nationwide. We support our clients through talent acquisition, HR advisory, and career coaching, with a strong emphasis on values alignment, culture fit, and long-term partnership.

Our clients include community centers, cultural institutions, congregational organizations, foundations, and other nonprofit entities deeply rooted in service, education, and community impact.

What You'll Do

Lead full-cycle recruiting for nonprofit and community-based organizations across North America
Partner closely with executive directors, CEOs, board members, and senior leadership teams
Serve as a trusted advisor on hiring strategy, market insights, and candidate alignment
Recruit for a wide range of roles, including:
- Executive and senior leadership
- Development and advancement
- Finance, operations, and HR
Proactively source candidates through networks, referrals, and relationship-based outreach
Build and maintain long-term relationships with candidates and client organizations
Contribute to business development efforts, including new client introductions and expanded engagements
Represent Purple Unicorn's thoughtful, high-touch, values-driven approach in all interactions

Types of Organizations You'll Support

While Purple Unicorn is industry-agnostic, this role will focus heavily on mission-driven and community-centered nonprofits, such as:

Community centers and cultural institutions
Congregational and faith-affiliated organizations
Educational and youth-serving nonprofits
Human services and social impact organizations
Foundations and philanthropic entities

Candidates with experience recruiting for community-based organizations, cultural institutions, congregations, or regional nonprofit networks will feel particularly aligned with this work

What We're Looking For

5+ years of recruiting experience, with a strong emphasis on nonprofit organizations
Demonstrated success working with values-driven, community-focused clients
Deep understanding of nonprofit leadership structures, boards, and stakeholder dynamics
Strong relationship-building skills and high emotional intelligence
Comfort operating as a strategic partner rather than a transactional recruiter
Existing nonprofit or community-based networks in the Northeast strongly preferred
Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently and manage multiple searches
Excellent communication, organization, and follow-through

Compensation & Structure

This role is 100% commission-based and is best suited for a recruiter who values flexibility, autonomy, and uncapped earning potential.

Compensation is highly competitive and designed to reward success across multiple revenue streams, including:

Recruiting placements
Business development and new client relationships
Expanded and repeat client engagements

Recruiters will directly benefit from the value they create. Detailed commission structure and earning potential will be shared during the interview process.

Why Purple Unicorn

Work with organizations making a real impact in their communities
High autonomy and trust — outcomes matter more than hours logged
Collaborative, values-driven leadership team
Opportunity to help shape and grow a specialized nonprofit recruiting practice
Fully remote with flexibility (U.S.-based)
