HomeNews & Views  / Why we are so passionate about helping charities
We love what we do. We’re passionate about helping charities to thrive and grow. 

That’s because BTA is run by former charity leaders. We’ve been there ourselves, so we know what organisations in the third sector really need.

That passion underpins everything we do. It’s why we have developed BTA into a one-stop shop for charity recruitment and consultancy. And it’s why we love to share our deep knowledge and experience.

Every year, we help charities to find great people - recruiting for dozens of vacancies in the third sector, from fundraisers to chief executives. But we also help and guide about 100 charities each year through our specialist consultancy service.

BTA has a network of experts who are trusted by charities to work with them and guide them on a range of projects such as leadership, fundraising, digital and communications. Our consultants are highly motivated people who come from a variety of backgrounds.

You can see that our experience and expertise are unrivalled. But so is our database - more than 14,000 potential candidates - and our networks. They’ve helped us to become the leading agency of our kind in Scotland and one of the biggest in the UK.

At BTA, we live by a guiding set of core values. They are Love, Knowledge, Ethics, Friendship, Growth and Sustainability.

Love because of what I’ve described here - our heart is in the charity sector and in our work.

Knowledge because we share that with charities through recruitment, consultancy, training and speaking at events. Plus our horizon-scanning is second to none.

Ethics because the charity’s needs are more important than ours. We always act with honesty and integrity.

Friendship because we pride ourselves on being the most approachable and friendly agency. We’re there to support and - where necessary - challenge charities to help them make a better world.

Growth because we continue to develop new services and to share learning and innovation with charities at home and abroad.

Sustainability because it’s not just what we do, it’s how we do it that’s crucial. We are fully committed to a sustainable future and helping to improve the environmental quality of our communities.

There are many ways in which we can help charities to succeed. But everything starts with a chat. So relax, sit down and give us a call on 01786 542224. It might just be the best thing you do for your charity this month.
