Overview

## What they do

Written from their own pages and the public record, checked 3 September 2026.

Chatter is an employer branding and recruitment marketing agency headquartered in Leeds, United Kingdom. Its size band is 11 to 50 (LinkedIn, read 2026-09-03). MPM Group Limited, initially named Chatter Communications Group Limited, has owned it since 30 November 2025. It sits here under employer branding and recruitment marketing.

Our take

The case studies show two skills sitting next to each other. One is research at scale. The Flutter work gathered insight across six countries and three merged betting brands, and the method is described in more detail than most agencies publish. The other is build. Chatter owns two products, a careers site platform called Enriched and a content system called Forge, and both KFC and Royal London are platform jobs as much as brand jobs. That combination fits a large employer with high volume hiring and a careers site that has stopped working. The client list leans heavily on retail, food and financial services, and there is no published sector page outside those.

Before you brief them

2. 02Media is named as a service but no programmatic offer is published. Ask who plans, buys and reports on paid spend.
3. 03The team is 11 to 50 people and several accounts are large. Ask who would be on your account and how much of the research is run by them rather than a partner.
