TheGoodFeat is a values-driven community and platform for humanitarian and development consultants.
We connect nonprofits, international agencies, and local organizations with trusted consultants—both independent professionals and small firms—who bring deep expertise, ethical commitment, and a drive for impact.

More than a job board, TheGoodFeat is a community built on inclusion, collaboration, and shared purpose. Every expert is selected not just for their technical skills, but also for their integrity, mindset, and motivation to make a difference.

We are especially committed to elevating national consultants, women, and underrepresented professionals—those whose local knowledge and lived experience are essential to solving global challenges.

Our platform combines human connection with thoughtful technology to simplify the matching process—while keeping people, transparency, and trust at the core.

Joining TheGoodFeat is free and easy. Build your profile and join a network where your expertise is valued—and where every mission supports a fairer, more impactful aid sector.

Joining TheGoodFeat is free and easy — and it connects you to a trusted, inclusive community of experts and impact-driven opportunities.

To become a member, simply create your profile at test.thegoodfeat.com. A complete and up-to-date profile allows for better visibility and more relevant matches.

To stay active in the talent pool, you’ll need to update your profile every six months. This helps us ensure a high-quality, dynamic community where every expert is current and engaged.

Your profile will be visible to recruiters from our partner organizations, but only when you are actively open to opportunities. You remain in control.

If your profile isn’t updated within six months, it will no longer be visible to recruiters — but you will continue to receive job alerts. We’ll remind you before it becomes inactive, so you don’t miss out.

At TheGoodFeat, staying connected means staying visible — and ready for impact.

To maximize your search for assignments on TheGoodFeat—whether you’re an independent consultant or part of a small firm—start by accessing the “Browse Opportunities” section for the latest missions available to the community.

Use the advanced search filters to target assignments by keywords matching your expertise, preferred location (country or region), categories that fit your specialization, and the job or contract type that aligns with your team’s structure—be it long-term, short-term, remote, or in-country.

Set up job alerts within your profile to be notified as soon as new consultancies that fit your criteria are posted. This helps you and your firm stay ahead of valuable opportunities.

Ensure your profile (whether individual or company) is complete and regularly updated, including details about past assignments, team experience, languages, technical skills, and your latest CV or company portfolio. For small firms, highlight collective achievements and the unique strengths of your team.

Craft a clear summary in your profile emphasizing your expertise, values, and impact—whether as an independent or a boutique firm. Revisit your search and profile regularly to keep up with your evolving focus or availability.

By following these steps, you’ll give yourself (or your team) the best chance to be seen, selected, and trusted by mission-driven organizations.

At TheGoodFeat, we believe that building a fairer and more effective sector starts with recognizing and elevating human talent. That’s why we select consultants, coaches, and mentors not just for what they’ve done, but for how they work—with integrity, purpose, and a spirit of collaboration.

We uphold high standards to ensure that every member contributes to a community grounded in impact, ethics, and inclusion. But we also value diversity of experience, and welcome exceptional professionals from all backgrounds.

Consultants and Experts
We welcome independent consultants and leaders of small firms with strong sector experience, ethical commitment, and a clear drive to support meaningful change. Most consultants have 8–10+ years of experience in the humanitarian or development sector (5+ years for tech/innovation roles), along with demonstrable results, professional references, and a collaborative mindset.
We especially encourage applications from national and underrepresented experts—their insight is essential to the future of the sector.

Coaches
Coaches must bring at least 5 years of experience supporting professionals through personal and career development. International credentials such as ICF or EMCC are valued, but we also recognize locally accredited coaches with strong references and a commitment to ethical practice.

Mentors and Senior Peers
Mentors are experienced professionals—generally with 10+ years in consultancy or leadership—who are ready to give back by guiding others. What matters most: their ability to listen, advise with integrity, and support emerging talent on their journey.

In short:
We look for people who combine expertise with purpose—and who are committed to shaping a more inclusive, collaborative, and high-impact consulting ecosystem.
If that’s you, we’d love for you to apply.

At The Good Feat, we believe in the power of guidance. Coaches and mentors play a vital role in building a fairer, more inclusive consulting ecosystem—by sharing their experience, offering support, and helping others grow with purpose.

To join us as a coach or mentor, you should meet the following criteria:

Coaches must have at least 5 years of coaching experience, along with certifications such as ICF, EMCC, or equivalent national credentials. A proven ability to support both personal and professional development is essential, as is a strong commitment to ethical practice.

Mentors typically bring 10+ years of experience in consultancy or team leadership, with demonstrated mentoring capabilities, sector insight, and the desire to support emerging talent. We’re looking for individuals who combine humility, integrity, and a passion for community.

We value not only your credentials, but your ability to build trust, listen deeply, and empower others.

If this sounds like you:

Please send us your credentials and references using the contact form on our website. Our team will carefully review your submission and get back to you.

Together, we’re building a stronger, more ethical, and more human-centered consulting community.

Great to see you taking initiative — that’s exactly the spirit we value at TheGoodFeat!

However, at The Good Feat, we’re a connector—not a recruiter.

We do not manage applications or CVs on behalf of organizations. Instead, we provide a trusted space where you can create and update your own profile—visible to our partner organizations if you choose to make it public.

If you find a consulting opportunity that interests you, please follow the instructions in the listing and apply directly to the hiring organization.

Keeping your profile complete and up to date also increases your visibility for future opportunities shared within the community.

For support on how to strengthen your application or profile, feel free to explore our Career Resources or reach out via the contact form.

No, TheGoodFeat is an independent platform.

We are not affiliated with any single international organization. However, our services have been developed in close collaboration with HR professionals and sector experts who bring experience from a wide range of international and local aid actors.

We also partner with organizations across the humanitarian and development sector to share opportunities, strengthen recruitment practices, and promote ethical, inclusive access to consulting expertise.

Our independence allows us to put people first—ensuring transparency, balanced partnerships, and community-led impact.
