Our offices are located in strategic locations across the globe, allowing our experienced Oil & Gas recruitment consultants to be in a position to service our client’s requirements across the full spectrum of the industry.
We supply across three main areas in the Oil & Gas industry: upstream, which handles the exploration and production of oil and gas; downstream which deals with refining, distribution and supply of products; and chemicals, which covers the production, and supply of petrochemical products.
Natural gas is still a hugely important energy source globally. The world is moving away from coal as the on demand power generation of choice and is now hugely reliant on the supply of gas. There has been resurgence in the Oil & Gas industry, as it enters recovery and growth, stabilising the price of oil.
Global employment in the Oil & Gas sector has begun to recover following a period of decline driven by falling oil prices and our teams are ready to provide quality-staffing solutions to support the industry through recovery.
