Recruiting the Melbury Wood Way

Melbury Wood was born out of an ambition to make recruitment more transparent and accessible, taking away the showmanship that so many traditional firms live by. We are approachable and down-to-earth and we will tell it to you straight.

We are a young and vibrant company, but our seasoned team brings over 20 years of experience working in the strategic communications recruitment space.

Join us on our journey whilst we help you along yours.

Our Values

At Melbury Wood, we conduct ourselves based on our core values of knowledge, integrity, meritocracy, and responsibility.  

We apply these values internally and externally, with our employees, recruitment partners, and candidates. We call these our four pillars.

Our Four Pillars

Knowledge

Knowledge is power. We are market experts, keeping up with the fast-paced and ever-evolving communications and public affairs landscape. This allows us to offer the best recruitment advice to our clients.

Integrity

Your word is your bond. We are direct and honest, never overstating our competencies. 

Meritocracy

We deliver real results for our clients and candidates. In our industry, that means finding the best people for the job.

Responsibility

Looking after careers and livelihoods is not something we take lightly. We have a sense of duty and moral obligation to give back to society, committing a proportion of our personal time and business profits back into projects that support our values and helping others in need.
