The Marcilly difference

A CV is only the beginning of the story. We place people, not paper.

Every member of our team has worked in a private household or as an Executive Assistant before moving into recruitment. Marcilly is deliberately boutique: a limited number of briefs at a time, every client met and every candidate interviewed by us, and a nine-month guarantee on each permanent placement.

  • 24hto shortlist every new brief
  • 9-monthguarantee on permanent placements
  • 11markets across the UK, Europe and the Gulf
  • Since 2020founder-led, consultant-run
