Who we are
Over eleven years, we have grown from a single focus into four interconnected specialisms — each one shaped by what the public sector actually needs. New leaders. Specialist skills. Accountable delivery. Responsible innovation.
We are problem solvers. We work with organisations navigating change, pressure, and the demand to prove value — and we bring the experience, the networks and the rigour to help them do it.
What our clients say
"I have known and worked with MLC for several years. They have supplied several exceptional individuals that have been placed to support the Workforce Programme for the system. MLC have a good grasp of the NHS environment, coupled with their in-depth understanding of the skills and abilities of the candidates, puts them in a strong position to partner those with the requirements of their clients."
Lorissa Page
Chief People Officer, South West London ICB
"The whole team at MLC have been impressive and are now a real asset to the national NHS programmes, without their commitment and drive to deliver we could not have achieved and exceeded government targets. In over 20 years as an HR professional this is without doubt the best search experience ever, I have no reservations in recommending them as an outstanding partner."
Steve Hodder
HR Director, NHS England
"Steve McKenzie is by far the most proactive, professional and client-focused consultant I have had the pleasure of working with. He matches skillset and cultural fit incredibly well."
