Both. We resource development-phase roles (planning, approvals, stakeholder engagement), construction-phase roles (site supervision, trades, technicians, commissioning), and long-term operations and maintenance teams. Yes. Executive search sits alongside our permanent and contract recruitment services, and we’ve placed leadership roles across the energy transition and sustainability sector. We operate across Australia and New Zealand, with teams in Melbourne, Sydney and Auckland. We work exclusively within energy transition and sustainability, which means genuine relationships with renewables associations and a network built specifically for this sector, rather than a generalist database. Our workforce planning service is built for exactly this — resourcing a full project team rather than a single role at a time. --- ## Connecting Renewable Energy Leaders with Opportunity. The transition to a low-carbon economy is creating opportunity on both sides of the market. Whether you are building internal capability or advancing your career in climate and clean energy, the right connection makes all the difference. Across Australia and New Zealand, demand for proven expertise in decarbonisation, renewable energy, and climate risk continues to grow.
