Specialists in Leadership appointments in the
Energy industries
Nordman Partners is a Search Company specialising in Leadership & Specialist hires in the Energy industries, with a particular focus towards the UK and Scandinavian markets. Our specialist market sectors are Drilling & Well and Renewables.
Our focus is to find the best talent for our clients every time. We do this by looking beyond the obvious in everything we do, drawing upon a wealth of experience in recruiting high profile professionals in these fields. We offer bespoke search solutions centred around thorough research and identification processes and rigorous assessment methods.
We are flexible and here to work for YOU in the search for the best Talent.
SEARCH SERVICES
Nordman Partners offers different services all with the same objective – to identify and attract the best talent to your organisation. Our range of services enable our clients to find the best solutions for their assignment.
Executive Search
The Executive Search service is aimed at C-Level, Vice President and Director appointments and involves a highly comprehensive and detailed search and assessment process.
Through this process, we will aim to map all potential candidates for the assignment – active and passive. The shortlisted candidates will go through a detailed interview and screening process assessing and exploring their experience, competencies, personality and motivations in order to establish a fit for the assignment.
We will be highly involved throughout the process and act as an Advisor to our Client and the prospective candidates until the appointment is made and beyond.
All of our retained executive searches come with a 6-month guarantee period, and value added services such as Market Intelligence reporting, Salary Benchmarking and Competitor Mapping.
Professional Search
Professional Search involves tailored Search solutions for Professionals at Middle to Senior Management level in your organisation. Professionals at this level are often the most important assets in an organisation. This type of search recognises the importance of such hires, and meets the needs of clients that want a headhunting service that may be less complex than an Executive Search.
We will work with you to define the profile and put in place a Search Solution tailored to your requirements.
Targeted Headhunting
In highly competitive marketplaces, the best talent for an assignment is often known by an organisation before a search has even been initiated. Organisations may be reluctant to approach them due to ethical reasons, or they may not know the best approach to take to maximise the chances of attracting them to the organisation.
Don’t leave this to chance, let us handle it for you!
We offer a flexible pricing solution for Targeted Headhunting.
CROSS-BORDER ASSIGNMENTS
Nordman Partners has a competitive advantage through its many years’ experience operating in both the UK and Scandinavia, assisting companies
in the search for the best talent.
Expanding into a new country is a high-risk exercise for any company. Nordman Partners has a wealth of experience not only in finding the right Leader for such assignments, but also in preparing and advising companies about the potential challenges they may face.
This could include not only advice on the profiling and recruitment of such a hire, taking into account the cultural differences and different business practices, but also Business Support services assisting with the whole process of moving into a new country.
"It's how it is done around here"
Nordman Partners are able to identify and steer our clients in the right direction when it comes to cultural differences and how business is conducted in the desired location. Management styles and expectations differ greatly between UK and Norway and again in each Scandinavian country. When expanding into a new country it is imperative to be sensitive to these when establishing your business.
