Company

Media Contacts is one of the UK's leading recruiters in the communications industry. Working on an exclusive basis for Media Publishers, Event Organisers, PR and Digital Agencies, we have gained an enviable reputation since the formation of the company in 1993.

The company began life as a recruiter exclusively for the media sales and editorial sectors and has since developed areas of specialisation to include design, web development, PR and marketing.
The spread of activities serviced by our organisation gives certain advantages over some of the more traditional London media recruiters.

Our ability to recruit at all levels and for the widest variety of positions means that our clients also number online gaming, sports organisations, investment banks, charities, regulatory bodies, government departments and market research organisations.

We recognise the key to success in the competitive market is to provide an effective, efficient service. The fact that this has been achieved with monotonous consistency is in no small part due to the fact that, as the company name suggests, we have developed an extensive network of companies that is without rival.
We are in recruitment for the long game - not for a quick buck - we now enjoy a fine reputation throughout the media sector in both the domestic and international arena. This comes through delivering a superior level of service based on sound business practices.
