Recruitment advice

Background (on reviewing probably too much background but I've typed it now):

I run a small organisation (6 members of staff). What we do is very niche as we straddle financial services and charity sectors. We don't have in-house HR and our staff retention is very good so I have limited recruitment experience. We're pretty well resourced financially but time poor currently.

We will be recruiting for part-time/permanent admin support. The role is still being defined but c2-3 days a week and hybrid. They will be required to be in the office on one specific day of the week as they will need to be on-site to perform certain functions of the role, but the rest of the time could be WFH if preferred and there would be some flexibility around the non-office days.

The role itself is mostly basic admin, but there could be the opportunity to grow the role with the right person, however the ambition to do that isn't a requirement. The work is to support all aspects of what we do (so covering financial services/charities) but experience in those sectors isn't really required - although I guess knowledge of the vocab around those areas could be useful just as baseline knowledge.

I'd like to outsource the recruitment to someone who can advertise, liaise with candidates, and filter approaches to then provide us with an anonymised long-list. We can then work from this to short-list, interview etc. Personal dynamics are really important in such a small organisation so even for a junior/part-time role we're happy to invest time/money in getting a good fit.

Any recommendations on who I could use for this? There are of course specialists for particular sectors, but this cuts across sectors so those aren't necessarily relevant (or would likely cover one but not the other).
