Level Up: Find Passion in Your Career

Your career should be more than just a job - it should inspire and challenge you. If you’re not passionate about the work you do or the company you work for, it might be time for a new challenge. Passion fuels success, drives career progression, and keeps work fulfilling.

So, how do you ensure you're in the right place? Let’s break it down.

I am a Principal Consultant at 300 North, specialising in Energy and Power Generation recruitment, with a specific focus on Gas Turbine Field Services, Controls Engineering, and senior technical roles across OEMs, ISPs, and EPC contractors.
I work globally with highly skilled Field Service Engineers, Controls Engineers, and Technical Advisors supporting aeroderivative and heavy-duty gas turbine projects. My role is to provide clients with deployable, proven engineers who can mobilise quickly and deliver on critical outages, commissioning programmes, and long-term service contracts.
My approach is deliberately specialist and relationship-led. I focus on a narrow technical market, prioritising quality over volume, and work closely with both clients and engineers to ensure long-term alignment, repeat deployments, and consistent delivery.

 

Tell Us About Your Professional Background

I have several years’ experience recruiting within technical engineering markets and now operate exclusively within the Energy sector. I partner with international clients across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and LATAM, supporting both contract and selective permanent hires where expertise, urgency, and project risk demand specialist input.

 

What Do You Like Doing Outside Of Work?

I Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors and keeping active, whether that’s getting to the gym, family walks, bike rides, hiking, or getting away for a weekend break. When the weather allows, you’ll often find me in a beer garden making the most of it.

 

Tell Us Something About Yourself That People Won't Know

I have skydived with the Army’s display team The Red Devils, an experience which I would say everybody should try! I’m also a keen cook and enjoy experimenting in the kitchen when time allows.

 

If You Won The Lottery What Would You Buy?

I would spend an extended period travelling Australia. With extended family based there, it’s a long-planned trip still to be done, and the combination of climate, beaches, and outdoor lifestyle is hard to beat.
