Industries We Support
The Industries We Recruit For
We recruit in five connected sectors: energy transition, data centres and digital infrastructure, engineering, infrastructure and industrial technology. They share the same constraint: a small pool of people who have delivered the work before, competing for the same projects across Asia Pacific.
Deliberately Specialist
The sectors overlap more each year. A data centre is a construction project, an engineering project and an energy project at once, and the people who run grid connection or power procurement for a renewables developer are now in demand from data centre operators too. Working across these connected sectors lets us reach crossover talent that a single sector recruiter would miss.
Our Specialist Sectors
Energy Transition
Renewable generation, battery storage, hydrogen, grid and transmission, and industrial decarbonisation. We recruit for developers and independent power producers, EPC contractors, investors and utilities, across development, delivery, commercial and operations roles. This is the market our practice was built around.
Typical roles include:
- Development Managers
- Project Directors
- PPA and Offtake Specialists
- Grid Connection Engineers
- Asset Managers
Data Centres & Digital Infrastructure
Hyperscale and colocation capacity is being built across Singapore, Johor, Bangkok, Jakarta and North Asia faster than the supply of people who can design, build, commission and run it. We recruit for operators, developers, contractors and consultancies across the full lifecycle, from site acquisition and design through construction, commissioning and critical facilities operations, and for the power and grid roles that now decide how quickly capacity comes online.
Typical roles include:
- Project Directors
- Construction Managers
- Commissioning Managers
- Critical Facilities Managers
- Power Procurement Managers
Engineering
Design, EPC and construction delivery, and commissioning and start up, for owners, consultancies and contractors delivering complex capital projects. Our engineering work is concentrated in energy, data centre and infrastructure programmes, where delivery experience at scale decides the outcome.
Typical roles include:
- Engineering Managers
- Design Managers
- Construction Managers
- Commissioning Managers
- QA/QC and HSE Managers
Infrastructure
Grid, transmission and substation programmes, water and utilities infrastructure, and the regional platforms investing in them. Alongside delivery roles we recruit the commercial, investment and operating leadership that infrastructure funds and their portfolio companies need as they scale across Asia Pacific.
Typical roles include:
- Programme Directors
- Owner's Engineers
- Investment Managers
- Commercial Directors
- Operating Partners
Industrial Technology
Businesses selling and deploying industrial technology into the region: automation, power and cooling equipment, electrical infrastructure and advanced manufacturing. Many are international suppliers building their first Asia Pacific commercial team.
Areas of interest include:
- Automation
- Power and Cooling Equipment
- Electrical Infrastructure
- Advanced Manufacturing
- Industrial Software
Why We Specialise
In a small talent pool, knowing the market is the service. Because we work in the same sectors every week, a search starts from people we already know about rather than from a keyword search, and we can tell you early when a brief does not match what exists in the region.
Research Behind the Advice
We publish our view of these markets in Market Insights, covering power constraints on data centre growth, infrastructure investment, battery storage, the ASEAN Power Grid and how suppliers enter the region. It is the same view we give clients privately.
