Turner Lovell have successfully recruited personnel for organisations and projects across the UK, Europe, USA, Africa and Middle East. Using our global network, we have successfully attracted and introduced both local and international talent to projects in the UK and in places such as France, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Romania, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Ghana and South Africa.

Typical projects include HVDC cable and converter installation, offshore wind farm development, HV substation construction, offshore platforms EPC, civil construction and power plant commissioning.

With significant Government incentives and subsidies hitting UK infrastructure projects the war for civil engineering and construction personnel has intensified more than ever.

To help our clients we identified that it was critical to build a deep network of talent across the industry. To develop this we took a candidate-driven approach and built a unique high-touch service to understand their needs, availability, and gain their trust to secure referrals.

With the growing demand to improve the electricity grid many of our clients have come to us looking for new ways to meet the rising need for experienced talent. We have worked closely with them to develop untapped candidate pools of grid authorised and qualified contractors.

Critical to this process has been our candidate vetting system which ensures we achieve a high first strike rate and an equally low attrition rate.

The offshore engineering industry is facing new challenges and complexities. The popularity of the industry has created significant talent pools, however, quantity doesn’t equal quality and talent identification is critical.

Using our advanced knowledge of the offshore environment we have developed processes that allow us to pre-screen candidates that have the right competence and aptitude to work safely and effectively. This saves considerable time and reduces risks when building teams in this challenging environment.  .

Due to recent downturns in the oil & gas industry, there has been an exodus of top talent to other sectors. Many of our clients are preparing for the rebound and looking for new talent options.

In response to this, we developed targeted networking systems and tools that allow us to track off-market talent across industries. Through this we have built a rich database of high-quality prospects that are off the radar of the competition.
