NES Global Talent, the technical manpower specialist, has signed an agreement enabling the company to recruit contract and permanent staff for international exploration, production and liquefied natural gas company BG Group.

Talking about the five-year global framework agreement, Kenny Davies, Major Project Sales Director at NES Global Talent, said: “We are delighted to have won this tender and look forward to working with BG Group to ensure it continues to have access to the very best talent in the industry.”

NES Global Talent recently opened new offices in Paris in France, Erbil in Iraq, Cape Town in South Africa, New Orleans in the US and Stavanger in Norway, bringing its footprint to 41 offices in 25 countries around the world.

“Our business is expanding globally,” Kenny said. “We have a host of office openings planned in 2014, enabling us to better support our clients, contractors and candidates. 

“In order to fill the skills gap we are tapping into the global talent pool and also working closely with organisations such as the Institution of Chemical Engineering (IChemE) to find people to fill these in-demand roles.”

Last year, the IChemE named NES Global Talent as its approved Global Recruitment Partner in an exclusive three-year deal.
