• Be articulate, with sound written and inter-personal skills
• Have a client centric attitude that prizes accessibility, responsiveness and quality
• Have strong attention to detail, with the ability to manage your workload on multiple projects

A little bit about MPC
MPC exists to ensure the built environment is a catalyst for positive change. We provide a range of consultancy services – including public affairs, public relations, political engagement and social value – to build support for new development.

But what about the benefits?

MPC is a genuinely great place to work. We believe in respecting our employees and understand that the way to get the very best work from you is to provide a welcoming, relaxed and friendly company culture. Employee wellbeing is at the heart of this. It’s why we have moved to a hub based flexible working model, where you are home based, but can meet up with colleagues in a range of different workspaces.
