Specialist recruitment for the oil and gas sector

A complex and sometimes challenging industry, oil and gas operators need an experienced recruitment partner with real expertise in their sector. At Rullion Engineering we've been serving the oil and gas sector for more than 30 years — in fact, it's where the company's roots are.  The size of our business and the breadth of our expertise also enable us to provide our tailored solutions on a global scale in what is a very complex market.

Track record

Over the years we've earned a glowing reputation as a leading name in engineering recruitment, and that reputation shines through in the oil and gas sector. We use our knowledge of the sector to create high performance recruitment solutions for operators, EPC contractors and consultancies alike.  We've also got the reach and resources to operate internationally, with current contracts in Norway, West Africa, the APAC countries, Iraq and the USA.

Working with major global oil and gas businesses, we've supplied a range of personnel spanning the three key areas of Exploration and Production, Specialist Engineering, and Project and Commercial Management.  From Geophysicists and Pipeline Engineers through to Estimators and Contract Administrators, our database of contractors and permanent workers covers every oil and gas discipline there is — each candidate carefully vetted and selected for their expertise and attitude.

Project requirement: Creation of an Internal Succession Planning Programme

Contract value: £1.8m annually

Key benefit to client:  retention of key skills within the business

Since 2007 we've worked closely with BP, using our engineering recruitment expertise to plan, initiate and run its SkillsWell Programme.  This internal succession planning programme established an official framework from within which the company can hire former employees on a contractor basis. Elements of the project included identifying and registering skilled leavers, arranging and facilitating quarterly contractors' meetings and providing guidance to former BP employees.  We also compiled monthly reports of registered retiring employees to maximise their exposure to new contract opportunities among Hiring Managers within BP.
