Process Engineering
Be it fine-tuning plant efficiency or mastering the complexities of regulatory compliance, we place the process engineering recruitment experts who solve challenges before they even arise.
Hardware Engineering
From the tiniest embedded systems to sweeping product launches, we connect the doers, the tinkerers, the problem-solvers. We place the hardware engineers who form the backbone of innovation in defence, aerospace, automotive, and beyond.
Safety Engineering
From meticulous risk assessments to watertight regulatory compliance, we place the masterminds who stitch safety nets across rail, defence, nuclear, and energy sectors. These are the pros who keep projects ironclad and teams shielded from the unexpected.
Stress & Structural Engineering
From fuselage frames to offshore platforms, from turbine blades to tunnel linings, when the pressure mounts, we’ve got the experts who keep it together.
Quality Engineering
We bring top-tier Quality Engineers, Inspectors, Auditors, and Managers to businesses that accept only the crème de la crème. The ones setting standards and pushing boundaries.
Manufacturing Engineering
We connect you with the planners, fixers, process improvers, and line leaders – the individuals who ensure operations keep running smoothly, standards remain high, and targets are met.
Environmental Engineering
From climate resilience to clean energy, waste management to water systems - this is where science meets sustainability. And we know the engineers, consultants, and specialists turning environmental challenges into real-world solutions
Commissioning
From first fix to final sign-off, we connect the engineers who make sure everything works safely, smoothly, and exactly as it should. Whether it’s power plants, data centres, offshore rigs or high-spec buildings, we place the people who test, tweak, and turn it all on.
Planning & Scheduling
From nuclear builds to national infrastructure, we connect the planners who see the whole picture with the businesses that need it drawn clearly.
Project & Programme Management
We place the people who keep engineering projects on track, on time, and on budget. Whether it’s a multi-million-pound infrastructure upgrade or a high-stakes R&D programme, we know the ones who lead from the front.
Training
From apprenticeships to advanced upskilling, we connect the people who want to grow with the companies that know growth depends on them. Because in engineering, standing still isn’t an option - and neither is settling for second-best.
