A leading specialist recruiter for UK utilities businesses

The UK utilities sector — in relation to engineering — can be very project driven, especially when it comes to Asset Management Programmes.  That's why companies need a specialist engineering utilities recruitment partner they can count on themselves.  As the Asset Management Programmes move through different phases, so the skills that our clients need also change. We've worked closely with a wide range of utilities businesses, providing an even wider range of services to ensure that programmes are delivered on time and within budget. We provide experienced contractors and permanent staff to ensure that these objectives are met. Today, our customised recruitment solutions created by talented engineering recruitment experts deliver added value in every area of your business that we're involved with.

Key benefit to client:  high-quality staff with significant cost savings

We've been the recruitment Managed Service provider to Untied Utilities since 2001, and our major achievements for this client have included the supply and migration of high-quality staff.  We've also delivered measurable cost savings, thanks to tighter pay rate control and the introduction of a weekly 'One Bill' invoice system that accelerated invoice settlement to earn a discount in agency mark-up.
