WORKING QUICKER, SMARTER TO BETTER SERVE LOCAL COMMUNITIES
Local councils provide vital services to their communities. Infrastructure, waste, transport, education, healthcare, the environment, and community engagement all contribute to enhancing quality of life for local residents.
And yet, budgets get tighter year-on-year. Local government faces increasing pressure to implement a cost-effective approach to service delivery. This is where new technologies come into play. Digital transformation of services empowers local authorities to work quicker and smarter, delivering more for less.
Where does MLC come in?
Local government is an ever-changing, rapidly developing landscape, and we’re excited to be a part of it.
We are an award-winning recruitment agency. But most importantly, we are ambitious. Our goal is to be the most credible, market-leading provider of interim and permanent IT professionals to Local Government clients in the UK.
We already have a vast network of connections in this space. From top permanent talent for technical programs to specialist associate interims for packaged programs of work, we deliver high-impact hires.
