An energetic sector, in the positive sense of the word: with a complex field of stakeholders, driven by innovation and internationalisation and a wide public interest. Our ambition: to make the difference with our candidates in the sector Energy & Utilities.
Energy & Utilities
Area of operation
In the past decade, we were closely involved in the turbulent market developments in this sector. It is a broad playing field: energy companies, network managers, onshore and offshore extraction (oil, gas, water), utilities, engineering firms, supervisors, the Ministry and banks and investment companies (specialists). We support organisations in their strategic and operational activities and provide the human resources they need to realise growth in a qualitative and quantitative sense. From management development to the recruitment of candidates in key positions, particularly in the area of strategy, business development and innovation.
New markets
Energy & Utilities is a sector in which we can fully realise our ambition, which is to be the best in our profession. From the perspective of the candidates, it generally involves key positions with a major impact. Ron Jansen, managing partner: "It's actually about new markets and new products. In this sector you need a special mix of qualities. Social commitment, the ability to deal with different interests, lobbying circles, mergers and alliances. At the same time, there is the need to earn money and do business, business that in many cases still has to be developed. It involves being tactful and operating at the cutting edge. And many other things will change in the years to come. The stream of developments in the liberalised business-to-business market will soon translate to the consumer market. Renewable energy is just one example."
Group of candidates
We have a broad group of candidates, partly formed by our efforts in the field of career guidance. What is remarkable in this sector is that the level of response to our well-known advertisements is evidence of a more than average interest. Experienced and qualified managers really want to focus their energy on this sector. And they can do just that, given the interesting and broad range of assignments on offer.
