SERVICE OVERVIEW

The Right Hire, First Time.

Permanent recruitment is where the long-term value lies. The right permanent hire builds teams, carries knowledge and drives projects. The wrong one is expensive to fix.

ERSG has spent 16 years building a track record in permanent recruitment for renewable energy. Our consultants know the sector beyond the job spec: the disciplines, project types, career paths, and what separates a candidate who fits on paper from one who succeeds in the role.

We operate two permanent models: Contingency Perm, where you pay only on successful placement, and Retained & Executive Search, for senior, critical or hard-to-find hires where a focused, dedicated search is required.

Both models are available across EMEA, the Americas and Asia Pacific. Whether you need a project manager in Hamburg, a grid engineer in Texas or a head of sustainability in Singapore, we have the network.

  • Contingency perm: payment on placement only - no upfront cost
  • Retained search: focused, dedicated, confidential executive-level search
  • Global reach: EMEA, Americas, Asia Pacific
  • Competency-based interviewing and psychometric testing available
  • Fully qualified candidates with background and reference checks
  • Volume discount pricing for multiple or repeat assignments

WHY ERSG

Why Clients Choose ERSG for Permanent Recruitment

16 Years Experience

Our consultants are specialists, not generalists. They understand the qualifications, career paths and sector nuances that matter when assessing permanent talent.

Two Models

Contingency or retained: we don't force a single model on every client. The right approach depends on the role, the market and the urgency. We advise on which works best.

Global Network

EMEA, Americas, Asia Pacific - our consultants have active relationships with talent in each market. Passive candidates who are not on job boards are the ones who make the difference.

Competency-Based

Our advertising and interview processes are structured around competency and capability, not assumption. We access more of the market because we look beyond the obvious.

FAQS

Frequently asked questions

Contingency is results-based - you pay only when we successfully place a candidate. No upfront cost, no exclusivity required. Retained search is a dedicated, exclusive engagement for senior or hard-to-fill roles. You pay a retainer upfront; we assign a dedicated consultant and run a thorough, confidential search. Most clients use both models depending on the role.
