About Us

Milburn Lewis is an Edinburgh based executive search business. Comprised of highly experienced, skilled recruiters, we are experts in helping employers identify and attract hard to find talent.

While most of our searches are conducted in Europe, we regularly work with organisations right across the globe.  Our core strengths are working with clients who have requirements in M&A Advisory, Data & Technology, Consulting and Transformation.

Our Vision is to be an exceptional business to work with and in, partnering with organisations and individuals who share our Values.

We know that our role is to facilitate the meeting of two parties whose goals complement each other. If you think we might be of help with your goals then please contact us; and if we honestly think we can help, we promise to do our best.
