The independent consulting market continues to grow, representing a significant share of UK business spending. By adopting this model, we are well-positioned to attract exceptional talent and deliver high-value results for our clients.

An Agile and Inclusive Approach

Our Associate Model is designed to combine the agility of independent consultancy with the proven methodologies and resources of Mildon Ltd. This structure eliminates the high overheads seen in traditional consulting firms, enabling us to focus on delivering real outcomes for clients at competitive rates.

• Client-Centric Values: A shared passion for making organisations more inclusive and equitable.

Since our inception, Mildon Ltd has built an impressive portfolio of repeat engagements and new business through word-of-mouth recommendations and our profile in the industry, for example Toby’s two Amazon bestselling books and speaking engagements. This track record reflects our ability to deliver measurable, meaningful results across industries.
