Engineering hiring questions
Do most engineering roles qualify for Critical Skills?
Most do, subject to salary threshold and the current eligible occupations list. We check route eligibility against the most recent guidance before recommending a route.
Can you find candidates with chartership / IEng?
Yes — candidate profiles surface chartership and professional registration, and we filter shortlists against your exact requirements.
How does it work for niche specialisms?
We brief on the specialism (e.g. instrumentation, controls, structural) and run a targeted search rather than relying on a generic engineering pool.
Other sectors we hire for
Hiring internationally for engineering?
We'll look at the roles, your volume and the right visa route — and recommend whether one-off support or a monthly programme fits.
