Nine hires are a good result. The bigger story is what we were brought in to help build.

Since November, we’ve been supporting a leading global EHV cable manufacturer as it expands in the UK following major project awards.
It needed leadership for two major project teams, a UK EPC structure, project controls and planning capability, and a tendering function to support what came next.

It needed people with direct cable-sector experience - in a market where that experience is already in very short supply.

In this time, we have filled 90% of the roles assigned to us, with shortlists typically delivered within two weeks and 100% retention to date.

Our work goes beyond search, though. We’ve helped shape job specifications, structure interviews, build candidate scoring frameworks and give the client the market insight needed to make better hiring decisions as its UK business grows.

By the time most projects start recruiting, the best people have already said yes to something else.

It's one of the biggest misconceptions in infrastructure recruitment. A project gets approved, months pass in planning, and recruitment only becomes a priority when mobilisation is getting close.

The trouble is, experienced Project Managers, Commissioning Engineers and Site Leaders don't suddenly become available because your programme is ready. They're already delivering somebody else's.

One of our recent projects took a different approach.

We started building the leadership team almost a year before construction began. What started as one Project Manager eventually became around 80% of the senior leadership team responsible for delivering the project.

Our latest case study explores how that approach helped build one of our client's flagship transmission projects.

This month’s stories show how quickly the drivers of electricity infrastructure investment are evolving.

Renewable integration remains a priority, but AI, climate resilience and cross-border interconnection are all influencing where investment is flowing next.

Together, they paint a broader picture of an industry responding to new demands while continuing to modernise the networks that keep power moving.

Here’s our latest round-up of the stories we’ve been watching.

The offshore energy market has a habit of creating talent hotspots.

A major project gets approved, investment floods in, and suddenly everyone is looking for the same handful of people with experience in transmission, HVDC or cable systems. Before long, those specialists are spread across Europe working on some of the industry's most important infrastructure programmes.

Our latest case study looks at how Turner Lovell helped a leading European Transmission System Operator engage that talent pool and support a major phase of offshore growth.
