range of candidates and clients nationwide.

The offshore wind sector will create by 2015 over 45,000 and by 2030 173,000, new full time jobs.

As the demand for energy engineers increases through the growth in renewable and sustainable sources of

energy, many energy engineers have been redeployed from other positions in the industry.

Employers in all the major sectors are recognising the need to develop specialist energy posts due to increasing

legislation, rising energy prices and a greater public awareness.
