Senior people, placed where the work is hardest.

AltiHire places experienced professionals with humanitarian, development and mission-driven organisations working across Africa. We are a placement service only: the hiring organisation employs, and AltiHire stands behind every introduction it makes.

Our model

Placement only. Clear terms, in writing, before anyone is introduced.

AltiHire never employs, pays, deploys or runs payroll for placed candidates. The hiring organisation is the employer, on its own contract and its own terms. Our work begins with a signed placement agreement and ends only after the placement has settled.

01

Signed agreement first

No introduction is made before a placement agreement is signed. Fees, the guarantee window and each side's obligations are settled in writing, in advance.

02

The employer pays, on success

The hiring organisation pays a success fee when a placed candidate starts. Candidates never pay anything, at any stage, for any reason.

03

Free replacement guarantee

If a hire leaves, or is dismissed for performance, within the guarantee window, AltiHire runs a replacement search at no additional fee.

Verticals

Five desks, one standard of proof.

Operations

Country directors, heads of programme and operations, field leadership and programme management.

Security

Security directors and managers, access specialists, risk advisers and duty-of-care leads.

Logistics

Supply chain, procurement, fleet, warehousing and logistics coordination for hard environments.

Crisis Response

Emergency coordinators, surge leadership and specialists who can deploy into a live response.

Open Desk

Senior mandates that sit between desks — chiefs of staff, advisers and cross-cutting leadership roles.

How we work

Nine steps, from agreement to a placement that lasts.

Step 1

Agreement

A signed placement agreement sets the fee, the guarantee window and the standard of service before any search begins.

Step 2

Intake

We take the brief properly: the role, the context, the risks of the duty station and what success looks like at 90 days.

Step 3

Longlist in 48 hours

A first longlist from our networks and roster is on the client's desk within 48 hours of intake.

Step 4

Screen and score

Candidates are screened and scored against the brief — experience, context fit and evidence, not keywords.

Step 5

Background checks

Checks are run with the candidate's written consent, before any name reaches the client.

Step 6

Shortlist of three

Three background-checked candidates, presented with evidence, within five working days of the signed agreement.

Step 7

Interviews and offer

The client interviews and decides. AltiHire coordinates, keeps both sides honest on timelines, and steps back from the offer itself — the contract is the employer's.

Step 8

Start date

The success fee falls due when the placed candidate starts. If the start fails inside the guarantee window, the replacement search is free.

Step 9

30 / 90-day check-ins

We check in with client and candidate at 30 and 90 days, and we hear problems early rather than read about them later.

Vetting

Checked before they are introduced. With consent, on the record.

Every shortlisted candidate passes the same checks, run with the candidate's written consent and described here in general terms. A candidate who does not consent is not shortlisted.

Identity and eligibility

  • Identity verification and right to work for the duty station
  • Reference checks with named referees
  • Certification and qualification checks

Integrity screening

  • Sanctions, PEP and adverse-media screening
  • PSEA declaration — protection from sexual exploitation and abuse
  • Prior-misconduct declaration, honestly asked and honestly answered
Vacancy board

Verified vacancies from official sources

AltiHire holds no mandates for the roles below, and this board does not imply that it does. AltiHire curates and verifies senior vacancies published by the hiring organisations themselves; applications go to the employer, through the official listing link on each card — never to AltiHire.
