Tatiana and Zelda have run the temporary and interim division together at Charity People for nine years. They work in close partnership to deliver a seamless, responsive, and consultative temporary recruitment service. Together, they bring nearly two decades of combined experience in temporary and interim recruitment, with deep expertise spanning all disciplines across the sector. Their approach ensures clients benefit from shared knowledge, consistent communication, and a genuine commitment to matching organisations with skilled, values driven professionals.
They take the time to understand the role, the culture, and the pressures an organisation may be navigating, ensuring each assignment begins with a clear and focused brief. Drawing on a trusted network of experienced temporary staff, they connect clients with individuals who are ready to step in and deliver from day one. Clients receive a carefully curated shortlist rather than volume, with every candidate aligned to the skills and outcomes required. Throughout the process, Tatiana and Zelda prioritise communication, relationship building and support ensuring both clients and candidates feel supported and well informed.
Whether you are looking for planned or unexpected interim support, Tatiana and Zelda are here to help you find candidates with passion and ambition to make a positive impact during their time with your organisation. With bookings ranging from a few weeks to several months, they understand the need to connect you with people with the right blend of skills and experience. They have an in-depth market knowledge and take pride in providing a smooth and straightforward process for you and the interim candidate.

”I worked with Zelda on a recent recruitment to a CEO position at a local Charity l'm the chair of trustees at. She was personable, understood our challenges and was able to fill the post in record time. I would highly recommend Zelda to peers across the charity sector as someone that's both super professional and a joy to work with.

”The EMDR Association used Charity People to assist with recruitment in April and had the good fortune to work with Tatiana. We were very impressed with her input. She took time to thoroughly understand our situation and our specific needs. She was responsive, efficient and friendly too. She supported us with all aspects of the process including good questions for the interview. A particularly nice touch was how Tatiana took the time to check out the responders and give us brief run down on how they fitted our required profile alongside their CV’s We were also pleased to note that Tatania supported the successful candidate during the settling in period and would have been available to assist had there been the need. Another nice touch was the follow up with us and that she took the time to find out how we thought things were going. They are going extremely well; the successful candidate is exactly the right person for us and is already making a massive difference to our organisation. We do believe this is largely due, not only to Charity People’s good processes but also to Tatania’s personal touch and the understanding she took the time to obtain of where we were and what we were looking for.
