The energy and utility sector has experienced sustained levels of technical advancements for many years, meaning that working in this industry is more exciting than ever. It is a unique environment as overseas and offshore opportunities allow candidates to customise their career path with a great deal of flexibility. This presents significant challenges to employers who find themselves dealing with an inherently mobile workforce.
