Our approach

Recruiting for process and energy facilities

Industrial energy work can take place in active facilities, along with new construction, expansions or planned outages. We clarify the work area, project phase, operating interfaces and how construction leadership will coordinate with the owner and other contractors.

Our approach

Project, field and estimating roles

We recruit Project Managers, Superintendents, Project Engineers, Estimators, Foremen, safety leaders and construction executives. Searches are tailored to the position's scope, from site and structural work to piping, equipment or broader facility construction.

Our approach

Assess field judgment and site readiness

We discuss how a candidate has worked within site procedures, coordinated multiple trades, planned construction activities and handled project documentation. Any site-specific training, process-industry experience or qualification is confirmed against the employer's stated requirements.

Our approach

Local and traveling energy construction network

Our network includes experienced construction candidates in every market we serve, with additional reach for traveling assignments. We can consider local candidates willing to travel 100% and nationwide candidates willing to travel 100% after discussing the project location and work arrangement.

How it works

How we fill your job.

Four steps, run by Ivan or a senior teammate.

01

Tell us who you need

We talk through the job, the projects, location, pay and why someone good would want it.

02

We find and speak with candidates

We call people with the right experience, including many who are not applying for jobs.

03

You meet the strongest matches

You get a short list with notes on each person. We set up interviews and share feedback.

04

We help you complete the hire

We help with the offer, counteroffers, notice and start date.

Relocation and travel

Location is part of the search.

We look locally first and discuss whether relocation or travel makes sense. A traveling superintendent's rotation, a PM's family move and a local commute are different decisions. We cover relocation help, per diem and timing before you meet anyone, not at the offer.

Placement protection

Candidate replacement guarantee

How long is the candidate replacement guarantee?

We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement.

Eligibility, exclusions, notification requirements, payment requirements, and replacement terms are governed by the signed client recruiting agreement.
