About us

Landell Mills is an international consultancy providing a range of development and cooperation-oriented services that assist countries, and their peoples attain the Sustainable Development Goals. We have been in business for nearly fifty years and are active globally. We work with private and public sector clients on assignments lasting from a few days to several years. Our work is ordinarily financed by public agencies, such as the EU, the World Bank, various UN agencies, the Development Banks, the UK FCDO and the German GiZ.

We provide multi-disciplinary services in project design; project management; fund/grant management; technical advisory services; institutional strengthening; and training and capacity building.

We have fifty staff based in offices in the UK (Trowbridge and Bristol) and Ireland (Dublin) and operate from a small number of subsidiary, branch and project offices in Belgium, Africa and Asia.

About the team

The FWC Division manages Framework Contracts (FWCs), a contractual mechanism used by our clients to rapidly mobilise expertise. Landell Mills has long-standing experience in FWCs and is currently implementing a number of FWCs for the European Commission in particular, across sectors such as agriculture, rural development, food security and nutrition, trade, investment climate, private sector, and employment. Assignments under FWCs cover the full project cycle, from identification and formulation to implementation, technical assistance, monitoring, and evaluation. In addition, we manage FWCs with the European Investment Bank (EIB) and are actively pursuing new business opportunities.

What we offer
  • A full-time position (36.25 hours per week) within a company with highly developed expertise and experience. 
  • A competitive salary – commensurate with experience. 
  • A matched workplace pension scheme (if engaged as a UK employee).
  • 24 days of holiday per year, exclusive of public holiday entitlement, rising with years of service.
  • Enhanced family leave entitlements.

Non-contractual benefits include flexible working provisions, an annual performance related bonus scheme, personal travel insurance, a holiday buy and sell scheme, and access to a health advice service for you and your immediate family members, including online private GP consultations.

Where you will work

Applicants must currently hold an unrestricted right to work in the UK or the EU. Our preference is for the role to be worked on a hybrid basis from our Trowbridge or Bristol offices (minimum two days per week on-site), or from our Dublin office (hybrid). However, we are open to considering a fully remote arrangement (on a consultancy basis) for the right candidate located elsewhere in the EU.
