IN A NUTSHELL

WHO we are

MERJE represents the culmination of outstanding industry expertise, a drive to be different, an ambition to be better and a commitment to valuing our people.

The business came to life in 2011 when our founders decided to create a recruitment company that was different from the rest.

Free of KPIs, arbitrary targets and micromanagement, we instead focus on leveraging our unrivalled industry expertise to make lasting and effective placements and foster meaningful, long-term relationships with clients and candidates.

Holding these values at the core of our business has helped us to achieve significant commercial success over the years. We've grown from just three people in a single office to a headcount of 40+ across three locations in Glasgow, London and Manchester.

All of this has led to us being an award-winning, market-leading team with a spectacular reputation.

DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

testimonials

I honestly feel like I have always been here. Settling in has been a breeze. Everyone is so supportive and the office environment is relaxed, so there are never any Monday blues. The culture is bonkers, like no other, and very laid-back, yet everyone works hard. And we have an approachable management team that promotes a transparent, open-door policy.

Jo, Front-Line Talent

This is the one company where I honestly look forward to coming to work because I enjoy spending time with the people who work here. Not to sound too cheesy, but it is much better when the day goes quickly because you are enjoying it rather than having a job where you’re sitting there clock watching.

Ellie, Credit Risk & Analytics

The difference between MERJE and other recruitment businesses is that we treat our clients and candidates as we expect to be treated ourselves. We're professional, but we're real people too and we want to strike up long-standing partnerships. It is not in our values to place individuals into jobs for quick fixes and quick fees.
