For Success at Work
At MU, being part of the team means joining a group of inspirational leaders committed to creating an environment that will help you excel in your career. Here, you will thrive in an environment that embraces hard work while promoting personal fulfilment. We have created an environment where talent meets opportunity, and where every team member can contribute to our shared success.
As a Foundation owned company, that is forever independent, we are Built to Last. Our founder secured MU's future by donating the company to the independent Mercuri Urval Foundation. This ensures we remain resilient, independent, and focused on serving our clients sustainably. We cannot be sold, reinforcing our commitment to long-term success and client service. We rest on more than 55 years of experience and knowledge of the leadership needed to succeed in an organisation’s specific context. Our Foundation owned set up and our long-term focus has enabled us to remain financially strong over business cycles. Being built to last is also about ensuring the right client services for the future and a future proof infrastructure. That is why a significant proportion of our results are re-invested in R&D and innovation, as well as the MU Research Institute.
