What our team say

Brook Weissand

Recruitment Consultant

I joined Marks Consulting Partners straight out of university, and it’s been the best decision I could have made for my career. From the very beginning, I was given the tools, training, and support to grow, not just as a recruiter, but as a person.

Over time I’ve seen my confidence and ambition develop massively. MCP has a culture that encourages you to push yourself, celebrate wins, and keep striving for the next goal. The environment is energetic, supportive, and genuinely rewarding – whether it’s through incentives, progression opportunities, or simply being recognised for hard work.

What I love most is that every day is different, and I get to work alongside a team that feels more like a family. The values, the culture, and the drive of the company make it a place where you actually look forward to coming into work.

I couldn’t be happier to be part of MCP, and I’m excited to see how far I can go here.

Matthew Newton

Managing Consultant

I joined Marks Consulting Partners as a trainee recruiter and have been fortunate enough to work my way up to Managing Consultant. The progression opportunities here have been fantastic, the business genuinely rewards hard work and commitment, and I’ve always felt supported on my journey.

From day one, I’ve had access to continuous training and mentoring, which has not only improved my skills but also given me the confidence to take on new challenges. The team culture is one of the best things about working here, collaborative, honest, and always pushing each other to achieve more.

What really sets MCP apart is the family feel combined with a professional, ambitious environment. I’ve been trusted with responsibility early on, but never without the guidance and backing to succeed. Every day brings something new, and I know there’s always scope to keep developing further.

I’m proud to be part of a company that values its people just as much as its clients and candidates. The last few years have been a brilliant journey, and I’m excited about what’s still to come.

Joshua Bourne

Recruitment Consultant

Since joining Marks Consulting Partners, I’ve built an established desk within the housing sector and have really enjoyed making it my own. One of the best things about working here is that my success is truly down to me, the harder I work, the more I achieve and I always have a supportive team around me to do this.

The culture at MCP is incredibly supportive, with colleagues who are always willing to share knowledge, celebrate wins, and push each other forward. It’s a company that combines a family feel with forward-thinking ideas, which makes it an exciting place to be.

I’ve been given the freedom and responsibility to grow my desk, alongside the backing and resources to really succeed. The balance between independence and support is what makes MCP stand out, and I’m proud to be part of a team that’s ambitious, driven, and always looking ahead.
