The Challenge
A global leader in oilfield technologies faced complex challenges that demanded industry-first thinking. Their aggressive global growth strategy required recruiting hard-to-find specialists across multiple time zones, cultures, and markets – from niche engineering roles in Scotland to procurement experts in Dubai. However, their U.S.-based talent acquisition team was struggling to deliver.
The stakes were even higher when the client decided to establish a new Digital and Tech Centre. After unsuccessful engagements with local staffing agencies, they needed a partner who could deliver strategic insight, not just candidates.
The Creative Solution
Our multilingual recruitment strategists in Krakow, backed by Affinix® – our proprietary, AI-led technology platform – delivered what others couldn’t: over 70 senior-level specialist placements across six countries.
Our recruitment strategists understood that finding engineers, scientists, chemists, sales reps, marketers, logistics analysts and procurement specialists required more than posting jobs. We balanced complex stakeholder needs across multiple time zones in Australia, Norway, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and the United Kingdom.
When the client needed a process engineering role filled in Scotland and a procurement role in Dubai – positions they’d previously struggled with for months – our creative approach delivered results in just 4 weeks each.
Strategic talent advisory that drives competitive advantage
For the tech centre expansion, we didn’t just recruit – we became strategic partners. Our in-house subject matter experts provided market insights and salary benchmarking data that helped the client to craft competitive compensation packages. As an unknown employer amongst these talent audiences, they needed more than recruitment; they needed employer branding strategy and market intelligence.
