QUALITY IS OUR PRIORITY

CASE STUDY//THERMOELECTRIC POWER STATIONIn 2013, our client was awarded the turnkey construction for a thermoelectric power station in South America. They were not only challenged with increasing their manpower for this project in a short period of time, but they were also in need of compliant expat talent as well as the development of local talent in-country.

Having built a history with this client over the last 15 years, NES Global Talent was able to successfully identify candidates for key technical roles for this project across Project Controls, HSE, Construction and Installation & Commissioning Engineers.

NES Global Talent has successfully retained key contractors across this 580MW power facility over the last 24 months, helping our client successfully work towards completing this $800

million order to include power transmission, fuel supply solutions and a full service maintenance contract.

Key Highlights

• Compliantly sourced and supported new

hiring needs across Latin America

• Successfully built out a project team of

Construction & Commissioning Engineers

• Streamlined the clients’ hiring process

• Improved time-to-hire with successful

recruitment across local content in Latin

America

CASE STUDY//POWER – RETAINED SEARCHOur client, a leading global power and transmission business, needed to appoint a new UK Managing Director for one of its divisions.

Following the successful completion of previous recruitment projects for the client, NES Global Talent was asked to undertake a confidential and exclusive retained search assignment to find the perfect fit for the role.

Our solution

As the company required a candidate with a niche skillset, including low and medium voltage sales knowledge, as well as experience of managing a market-leading business, we had to take an extremely targeted approach. We dedicated a search consultant full time to the

project and tasked a team of skilled researchers with identifying companies that would most likely contain the right people with the specific skills and experience required for this highlevel position. Following an extensive search process, we compiled a shortlist of five potential candidates for the client. Our search consultant liaised with both parties, arranged interviews and ensured that the process ran smoothly.

The outcome

Three people were invited for the second stage of client interviews, with one being chosen for a final stage interview and presentation. An offer was made and accepted and the candidate is now successfully performing the role.

CASE STUDY//CRAFT LABOUROur Client’s Challenge

Our client, a leading service provider for high reliability and optimal efficiency of rotating equipment across the global power market; was requested to support an emergency generator outage on one of the United States’ newest and largest nuclear power facilities providing clean energy to over two million Texas based homes. The scope of work was determined as a full generator rewind, requiring 12 highly skilled generator winders across 2 shifts to repair one of the plants nuclear steam turbine generators.

Our solution

As a leading supplier of skilled craft labour, we were able to quickly step in; dedicating 3 craft

discipline consultants to develop a hiring campaign and secure 12 personnel within a 1 week period leading into the generator shutdown. NES was able to compliantly provide personnel qualified for badging for unescorted access to the power station.

The outcome

The rewind was completed ahead of the anticipated 32 day outage schedule, improving efficiency for our client with zero lost-time incidents. Given the success of the project, the client provided completion bonuses for all NES personnel; improving retention and securing these winders for future outage needs.
