Accept shares your chosen details. Decline shares nothing.
Most job boards ask people to shout into the void.
This flips the model: people opt in, stay in control, and are contacted with intent.
Talent Direct Network
Talent Direct helps third sector organisations reach experienced professionals who are open to the right role. Professionals stay in control. Organisations get a warmer starting point.

The Problem
It's a matching failure.
Right Now
- — Candidates say they "never hear back"
- — Job descriptions are bloated
- — Application processes are exhausting
The Reality
Good people opt out entirely. This is not a talent shortage. It is a system designed for noise, not signal.
How this works differently
01
People list themselves
Short profile. Clear skills. Human language. Nothing wasted.
02
Organisations browse
No guessing. No CV trawling. No LinkedIn cold spam.
03
Permission unlocks details
Only when you agree. Enquiries go through the network.
Common Questions
Everything you need to know
No guarantees. Just real visibility with consent.
