NES Fircroft has been established in Melbourne since 2013. Our origins are rooted in Oil & Gas, however we have diversified our business focus considerably into the Renewable Energy market.
Our services encompass wind, solar and hydropower projects, and we also support other technical sectors such as Construction & Infrastructure.
Businesses in Melbourne and wider Australia seek our recruitment support due to our demonstrated expert knowledge of the local market, and the fact that our recruitment consultants are discipline-specific, meaning they’re truly experts in their sectors, staying close to trends and people movement.
Staffing Melbourne's Technical Markets
We offer blue and white collar permanent recruitment for construction contractors across the entire C&I industry. For example, we leveraged previous success with a Tier 1 client in Sydney to successfully place a variety of white-collar roles for the same contractor in Melbourne across site management, project management and contract administration positions.
Our experienced recruitment teams supply specialist staff to national Tier 1 contractors in the Commercial & Civil space, support residential businesses, and manage volume numbers of contractors for major global companies across the energy spectrum.
