What sets
us apart

Landell Mills helps public, private and philanthropic clients design, manage, monitor and communicate practical development and international cooperation solutions in complex markets. We combine almost 50 years of international consulting experience with senior-led project management, technical depth, donor fluency and the agility and personability of an independent owner-managed company. Our added value lies in combining practical delivery experience, strong technical networks, an ability to mobilise rapidly, and the awareness to work in challenging environments. Our work spans the full project cycle - from investment feasibility and design through implementation, monitoring, evaluation, learning and communications – across seven interconnected thematic areas: skills, jobs and enterprise; trade and investment; infrastructure; agriculture, fisheries and food systems; climate change, environment and natural resource management; governance, peace and security; and humanitarian monitoring, resilience and HDP nexus support.​ Within each, we use and promote digital tools, data and communications to improve delivery, learning and reach.

We work for public sector agencies, including national governments, development agencies such as the EU, UN agencies, FCDO and GIZ, and development banks including the Asian Development Bank, World Bank and FMO, the Dutch entrepreneurial development bank. We also work with philanthropies such as the Gates Foundation and private sector organisations including agribusinesses and private investors. We have implemented over 1000 contracts to date, in almost all countries of the world. We work in partnership with others, including local consultancies, think tanks and institutes, universities, bespoke technical consultancies, and non-governmental organisations.
