Here at Energi People, we’ve spent the last couple of decades doing one thing exceptionally well: specialist engineer recruitment.
From the beginning, we’ve always been about more than just matching a CV with a job spec. We take the time to understand our clients, our candidates, and the ever-evolving engineering and construction landscape and it is that commitment that’s made us a trusted name across the globe.
Whether you’re a growing business looking for that perfect technical expert or a professional ready for the next step in your career, our team is here to make the process seamless, successful, and yes, even enjoyable.
Who We Are
Our story began back in 2002. Since then, we’ve grown to become a leading name in technical recruitment for the built environment. What makes us different? Quite simply, our people.
Our recruitment specialists aren’t just experts in talent acquisition; they’re tuned in to the engineering and construction world. We don’t rely on guesswork or algorithms. We build relationships, listen closely, and act as trusted advisors to our clients and candidates alike.
We’re proud to say we’re not your average recruitment agency. Our approach is personal, professional, and always people-first. It’s helped us build partnerships that last and deliver results that speak for themselves.

At the heart of everything we do is our vision: to change lives for the better. Whether that’s helping a project team find the game-changing specialist they’ve been searching for or guiding a candidate into a role that fits them perfectly, we’re here to make a meaningful impact.
Recruitment isn’t just about filling a role. It’s about solving problems, unlocking potential, and creating lasting value for businesses and individuals alike. That’s why we put so much energy into understanding what success looks like for each person we work with: When we say we care, we genuinely mean it.
