4. Our global network
Publicly listed in the United Kingdom, Hays is the leading
global specialist recruiting group employing more than
6,900 staff globally. We are the experts at recruiting
qualified, professional and skilled people worldwide, being
the market leader in the UK and Australia and one of the
market leaders in Continental Europe.
Hays operates across the private and public sectors, dealing
in permanent positions, contract roles and temporary
assignments. In 2009 the group placed approximately
50,000 people in permanent jobs and found temporary or
contract work for over 270,000 people.
With over thirty years experience recruiting engineers, the
oil and gas business was first launched in 2005. It is now
one of the fastest growing business units in the company.
The team of more than 40 employees is managed on a
global basis and operates as a network that transcends
national boundaries and regional differences. Over 380
offices worldwide support a principal group of six oil
and gas hubs, extending and magnifying our reach and
understanding of the local markets in which you work. This
ensures a personalised service tailored specifically to meet
your recruitment needs.
The Global Director for Hays Oil Gas oversees all
operations through a matrix management model, providing
a seamless delivery of our service and infrastructure on
behalf of our clients, candidates and staff.
Our recruiting experts
Since its inception, Hays Oil Gas has grown from our
knowledge of the engineering markets and those who work
in it. This expertise ensures our continued success. But
having the right background and potential is only the start
of our people capability. It is the training and development
of that raw talent where Hays comes into its own. Utilising
an in-house global training capability, we ensure a solid
grounding in technical and industry knowledge that is
complimented with widely recognised industry leading
recruiting skills.
Specialisation enables us to speak your language and
understand your needs. For that reason dedicated
management of the business unit is a must. This global
management team is coordinated by the global Managing
Director to ensure our approach is and continues to be
market leading.

Our services
Our recruiting experts work within one of our two divisions;
permanent hire; or contract recruitment services, and
as such their methodologies, skills and resources are
specific and dedicated to their service offering. Whilst we
believe the two businesses require different attributes and
capabilities, we do not favour one over the next and are
equally adept in both.
Permanent hire
As with all Hays consultants, those in Oil Gas perform
a complete 360-degree role. This means the consultant
you first speak with would be the one that interviews your
candidates and takes you through the entire recruiting
process and beyond. We do not believe in demarcating this
process between individuals, rather in continuity and the
value this adds to the relationship.
Each consultant specialises further in one of our three
operating teams; Upstream, Downstream and Project
Development. This further enhances our effectiveness and
sourcing abilities throughout the recruitment life cycle.
Contract supply
Much of our business comes from contract supply and as a
result we have the infrastructure to source, on-board, and
payroll professionals and skilled individuals in the industry.
From electronic timesheets and consolidated invoices to
‘meet and greet’, travel and medical arrangements, our
delivery team is engaged to take on the complex and varied
tasks of this service.
Our ‘contract consultants’ are trained to react quickly and
decisively to short-term hiring needs. This is supported by
their immediate access to candidates from our extensive
databases, both locally and globally.
Partnership services
The Candidate Attraction Solutions department of Hays
supports the oil and gas business with innovative and
effective campaign management services online. This
ranges from identifying the right global job boards and
media outlets to the online automation of response, as
well as the design and posting of campaign landing pages
or micro sites which provide an opportunity to promote
your brand. This service supports many of the significant
campaigns across Hays globally and is particularly pertinent
to the global nature of oil and gas recruitment.
Managed service
This division of Hays provides recruitment process
outsourcing (RPO) and supporting HR services, delivered
as both modular and fully integrated RPO solutions. Having
worked in this market since the early nineties, this team is
dedicated to and specialises in:
Helping you attract and retain the best talent
Enabling you to respond rapidly to market conditions
Using the best recruitment channels and maximising
the power of your brand
Saving you time, money and effort
In conjunction with our recruiting experts in oil and gas, the
managed service team designs and manages the service
offerings developed specifically for this industry.
Hays Oil Gas is a rapidly growing division within Hays,
the world’s largest specialist recruitment group. We will
continue to invest in our people who are the essence of the
Hays brand. We are also committed to further developing
industry dedicated methodologies and knowledge in order
to provide you the very best advice and support now and in
the future.
