A better way to

hire explore grow

Connecting top talent to advertising, marketing, digital and design roles

Header image
Melior means “better” in Latin. Yes, maybe it’s a little cheesy; but Melior was born out of the desire to do things better.

Founded in Singapore in 2020, we realised that even before the pandemic, the typical recruitment model didn’t work for everyone. Our “new normal” saw people and businesses working very differently, also calling for different recruitment options.

We have offices in Singapore and Dubai, but have a global reach; having helped companies in America, Canada, England, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, Australia… You get the picture.

Being an independent company, we’re able to be agile and pivot our services to match the ever-evolving talent landscape.

What we do

Pretty well, if we do say so ourselves

We have a real passion for helping to create and shape company culture; whether that’s helping you to hire the first employee of a new office (and then helping to build the team), or helping to grow an existing team.

We offer a variety of services for different hiring needs and can be flexible to do what works best for you.

Icon-Contingent

Contingent

For “Standard Roles”

For some of the more popular roles, we can introduce you to people from our “little black book” and only request a fee once they’ve been hired.

Icon_Retained

(Part) Retained

For Niche or Senior Roles

You pay a portion of the (lower) fee up-front, hiring us as your Recruiter. The rest of the fee is paid in stages or once a candidate is hired.

Icon-In house

In-House

For High Volume Roles

You effectively hire a Melior Consultant as your “Interim Recruitment Manager” for as long as you need, with (much lower) success fees for each placement.

Icon-Freelance & Contract

Freelance & contract

For Short-Term or Urgent Roles

We can find you immediately available talent, to help you out during those sticky situations.

Meet the team

We’re a pretty great bunch

melior-team-Nicky
Nicky Webb

Founder & Managing Director

I’ve been working in creative recruitment since 2014, starting in London, spending 7.5 years in Singapore and now living in Dubai! I absolutely love my “job” and feel very grateful to have found something that fills me with passion and purpose. 

Outside of work I’m obsessed with understanding human behaviour (I’ve got a degree in Psychology, a Diploma in Counselling and I’m currently pursuing a coaching certification) and love anything active (with the occasional wine).

Katie Jonzen

Senior Consultant

Passion is at the heart of what I do, and I absolutely love supporting purpose-driven companies in their expansion (particularly in the field of UX). With a background in Psychology, I believe in the power of human connection and love how this sector is bridging the gap between companies and their users.

Outside of work I love yoga, meditation and frolicking in nature. I’m fortunate enough to live in Bali, where I also work as a Spiritual Mentor.

Yuneida Gutierrez

Talent Manager

I’ve been working in social media since 2012, managing a variety of client’s social platforms, doing influencer management and broader PR. I’m now using all of those skills to help people find better jobs and to help companies grow! I’m also very lucky to call Bali my home. 

Outside of work you’ll find me spending my days trying out new cafes in the search for the best cup of coffee and croissant, and my nights pretending to be a food critic.
