CENTRAL GOVERNMENT

Our sectors.

Navigating a new economic environment

There is an ever-growing pressure on government services. The cost-of-living crisis, the Ukraine war, the green agenda are just some of the challenges faced by the sector. But with challenge comes opportunity – new departments, new skills, digital innovation, and a focus on cross-sector collaboration.

Where does MLC come in?

We recruit corporate services professionals across a variety of interim roles in finance, procurement, transformation and change, and programme management.

From single, specialist appointments for solving niche problems to designing multi-disciplinary teams for complex programme discovery and delivery, we are the go-to for high-impact hires.
