Some of the local and global organisations that call us partners
• Sector depth, not generalist recruitment
We work exclusively in renewable energy, giving clients accurate market context, realistic expectations, and informed shortlists.
• Structured assessment, not CV forwarding
Our process combines role calibration, Gap Analysis, and Due Diligence to support confident hiring decisions.
• Judgement under pressure
We are trusted on hires that matter — under tight timelines, commercial scrutiny, and delivery risk.
Brand protection sits at the centre of how we operate — for both our clients and the candidates we represent.
Roles are taken to market carefully and accurately. We do not circulate CVs speculatively, and we do not introduce candidates without their explicit consent. Every candidate put forward has been engaged properly, assessed in context, and represented with intent.
Candidates are briefed honestly on the role, the environment, and expectations. They are prepared thoroughly for interviews, so discussions are focused on substance rather than assumptions or misalignment.
This disciplined approach protects employer brand, avoids market fatigue, and ensures decision-making is based on real insight — not volume, noise, or guesswork.
In many cases, clients appoint us as the sole recruitment partner for a role without a retainer fee.
Under an exclusive search:
Because exclusivity significantly reduces delivery and commercial risk on our side, this is typically the most cost-effective recruitment option for clients. The focused nature of the mandate allows us to invest more time upfront while keeping overall fees lower than contingency-based models.
The result is a quieter, more controlled hiring process.
Roles are positioned clearly, candidates are engaged properly, and decision-making is based on substance rather than volume. Interviews are more focused, fewer are needed, and expectations are aligned earlier.
For clients, this means reduced hiring risk and stronger long-term appointments. For candidates, it means clarity, respect, and roles that are properly represented from the outset.
The outcome is credibility protected on both sides — and decisions that stand up over time.
We work with renewable energy businesses where the hire carries real delivery, commercial, and reputational risk.
Our work is not built around high-volume contingency recruitment. We are deliberate about the mandates we take on and selective about how roles are taken to market.
In practice, this means we work either on an exclusive basis or alongside a very limited number of trusted recruitment partners. Recruiter pools are kept intentionally tight to avoid duplication, mixed messaging, and unnecessary noise in the market.
This approach allows roles to be positioned accurately and consistently, protects employer brand, and ensures candidates engage with the opportunity in a considered way — not reactively or speculatively.
We work roles where there is real buy-in. Depending on the nature of the hire and the level of commitment from the client, one of the following engagement models applies.
For senior, specialist, and leadership hires where discretion, depth, and certainty are critical, we offer retained search.
This is a standalone engagement model with a structured fee agreed upfront. Retained search allows for full role calibration, disciplined market mapping, and a tightly managed process from the outset.
Our retained search methodology is explained separately due to the level of governance, assessment, and reporting involved.

Where contingency applies, we only accept assignments where the recruiter pool is intentionally restricted — typically no more than two to three agencies in total.
This ensures:
Under limited contingency:
Advisory & Market Intelligence Services
Alongside recruitment, we provide structured advisory services that support better hiring, pricing, and risk decisions — whether or not we are the recruiting partner.
These services are used both within recruitment mandates and on a standalone advisory basis
Gap Analysis – Structured written assessment completed by the candidate.
Due Diligence Reports – Decision-support reports prepared by us for hiring managers.
Market Intelligence – Contextual insight drawn from deep renewable energy market involvement.
Salary Benchmarking & Surveys – Role-specific benchmarking aligned to job descriptions and market surveys.
Bid & Tender Advisory – Advisory support for Owners Engineers, EPCs, and delivery partners at bid stage, including personnel strategy, CV submissions, and risk-aware positioning.
Advisory services can be used independently or alongside recruitment mandates, depending on client requirements.
Clients who have sourced candidates independently often use these services to introduce an additional layer of structured assessment before making a decision.
