Here at MEM Recruitment, we uphold our extensive legacy and esteemed reputation within the recruitment industry, consistently striving for the highest standards.
Our core values are rooted in family, and we extend the same trust, attention and care to our clients, treating them as part of our extended family.
Your achievements are intrinsically linked to our own, and this mutual success has fostered enduring client relationships, some spanning more than two decades, which remain as robust as ever.
Our motto is ‘Trust us with people,’ and that is precisely what our clients do.
Place your trust in MEM Recruitment for access to the highest calibre of talent, and watch your business flourish.
MEM Recruitment is your local recruitment agency offering temporary and permanent staffing solutions for the Industrial, Commercial, and Driving sectors.
Established in 1994 and with branches in Bedford, Milton Keynes, Northampton and Wellingborough, we have quickly grown to be a significant and highly respected operator in the recruitment industry.
Achieving the ‘double-digit years in business’ is the result of our dedicated team of recruitment professionals, all passionate in their roles, providing excellent customer service to each of our clients daily.
We can confidently say that we are an ethical recruiter promoting best practices that contribute to our sustained growth and presence.
For over three decades, MEM Recruitment was shaped by the leadership of its founder-owners, Gary Matthews and Ian McLaven. Upon their well-earned retirement in 2024, the business entered a new chapter under the stewardship of Daniel McLaven and an ambitious leadership team: Rebecca Sanders, Daniel Muncey, and Monika Kaleta.
This new generation brings with them not only a deep respect for the company’s legacy, but a renewed vision for the future — one that continues to prioritise people, relationships, and meaningful work.
Their passion for recruitment runs deep, cascading through the business and inspiring a committed team of experienced managers, consultants, and support staff who embody MEM’s values every day.
Today, MEM Recruitment is powered by over 25 permanent staff members — including its owner-director, senior leadership, recruitment specialists, and administrators — who collectively manage and support a temporary workforce of over 600 people.
Though our reach now spans a growing number of national clients, our strength remains in our roots. As a business born from the communities we serve, we offer something larger firms often cannot: authentic local insight, longstanding relationships, and a human approach that clients trust and value.
Behind the scenes, MEM Recruitment is digitally supported by sister company MEM Digital — a web and digital consultancy providing tailored platforms, automation tools, and creative services that empower both our internal teams and our clients. This strategic partnership ensures we remain agile, connected, and ready to meet the evolving demands of modern recruitment.
