Mortice Consulting provides specialist consultancy support based on the principle of operational management of sites. We provide support in Operations, Facilities and Collection management, Sustainability, Procurement, Museum Design and Research and Benchmarking to those caring for our Built and Cultural Heritage. At Mortice Consulting, we believe in finding innovative solutions in the care of these important and unique buildings. We provide a range of solutions through our staff and network of subject matter experts.
We work exclusively with UK and International Cultural Sector clients; as a result we have developed a unique understanding of working within these organisations and delivering solutions through integration and collaboration.
Mortice was founded in 2017, focusing primarily on Facilities and Estates Management. Over the years, our team and its expertise have expanded its scope into new and exciting areas which allow us to further fulfil our mission of supporting the sector. For example, we have worked with institutions to develop their Collection Care, Storage and Sustainability strategies and Facilities and Operations services. Our dedication to this sector pushes us to explore with our clients, new ways in which we can support and develop our Built and Cultural Heritage.
How we work:

- A personal service and ability to provide tailored support to clients
- Access to a range of leading subject matter experts
- A competitive price through a model which limits overheads
- The resilience that comes through our demonstrable track record of delivering to clients like you
A note from our Director and founder, Ben Melham
“I can’t believe that Mortice Consulting was only developed in 2017. I had already been working in estate management in the cultural sector for many years and I had become increasingly aware of institutions struggling to work out their strategic visions. I was frustrated that there were many unique institutions that had similar problems but were struggling to connect and share best practice. I set up Mortice in order to remedy these issues. I wanted Mortice to bring best practice across the sector from contractors, suppliers and industries and create networks to connect those supporting the operations of cultural sector buildings.
I have loved seeing the Mortice team grow and diversify and it has been a privilege to work with a growing number of cultural institutions to support through consulting and training workshops, their operations, collection care and supporting through the closure and reopening of sites due to COVID.
Following the return to operations the impacts of climate change have become more apparent and are now featuring at the forefront of operations and best practice for the cultural sector. With updates to public procurement and an increased focus on sustainability shifting to the forefront of all areas of our practice, it will become the foundation of everything Mortice practices and prescribes for the sector. We are excited to see what the future has in store but we predict that it will be full of exploration, innovation and growth.
If you would like to find out more about what we do at Mortice or have ideas how we could work together, please get in touch.
