Knighton Sohel Oil & Gas
Knighton Sohel was founded with a clear focus of providing a superior and enhanced recruitment service in the Oil & Gas
sector. Our service is centred around the client where we deliver a bespoke, tailored recruitment solution that exceeds
client expectations.
By employing the very best ourselves, we are empowered to deliver innovative and professional recruitment services to all
of our clients using a variety of methods. Using search, selection and a database of highly talented individuals, we are able
to tailor the recruitment service to the specific requirement. Our search service enables us to identify and approach
discretely targeted candidates for specialist or confidential opportunities. Selection is achieved through focused offline and
online media advertising to attract applicants with relevant skills, experience and backgrounds. A wealth of high calibre
candidates is contained within our extensive database, which we will always interrogate to provide a comprehensive
shortlist.
Our Service
Knighton Sohel provide a full Search & Selection service to the Oil & Gas sector where we have a strong track record of
placing experienced professionals with a broad range of clients. We have a team of 8 consultants and 2 researchers that
each focus on specialist sub sectors of the Oil & Gas industry where they have built up an understanding of the structure of
the sub sector alongside a broad network of contacts. We have a track record of placing individuals in a multitude of
disciplines including sales, business development, commercial, operations, engineering, geosciences through to senior
executive level management.
Our Approach
We focus on gaining a detailed understanding of our clients needs in terms of background, experience and cultural fit of
candidates, so that we can identify a small number of candidates that closely match your requirements. We have a
proactive approach towards sourcing candidates that involves confidentially utilising our network of contacts, headhunting,
and advertising (on generic & industry specific job boards) with minimal use of reactive methods such as job board /
database searches. We find our approach identifies candidates who have positive motivations behind a career move
resulting in long term careers with the employers we place them with.
The consultant responsible for the assignment will provide constant consultative advice and feedback throughout the
process from initial stages of taking on details of the role through to post placement feedback. This involves updates on
sourcing candidates, short listing, arranging interviews with post interview feedback, advice on remuneration and managing
the offer / acceptance / termination of previous employment and notice period. We find this close management and
consultative advice ensures the client can secure the best candidate, whilst avoiding issues such as counter offers.
Following placement we follow up with candidate and client at regular intervals to check on performance and cultural fit.
This regular contact stems not only from our professional pride but also from our long-term outlook toward client and
candidate relationships. We see this continuing bond with our key clients as imperative to developing long term
professional relationships.
I hope you find the above overview useful; however I would reiterate that we work with each client individually and tailor an
approach that both client and Knighton Sohel are comfortable with. Please feel free to contact me if you have any
questions or wish to discuss the above in further detail.
