Power & Utilities is one of the fastest growing areas for professional recruitment and the number of energy sector jobs is increasing exponentially every year. Encompassing traditional power generation jobs, essential utilities jobs and renewable energy jobs, this sector is set to continue expanding for years to come as the UK’s reliance on renewable energy sources grows to 30% by 2020.
Over the past 20 years, Linear Recruitment has built extensive relationships with high-quality power and utilities job candidates and have access to the most desirable vacancies in the energy industry. We work on National Grid Person, SHEA and NRSWA roles amongst a wide range of others.
