Mark Znowski and Paul Flynn created Eurostaff in 2003, seeing an opportunity to create a recruitment firm offering more than others in the market – a global approach with local knowledge. The beginnings of the company were humble, working with limited technology and no external funding, the success and growth of the company has always been a result of hard work and determination – and continues to be that way to this day.
Having been in the energy recruiting business for the past twelve years, we have witnessed many changes in this industry, but none that have impacted the recruitment process as significantly as those that have occurred over the past two years. Our take on the most noteworthy developments include: - Regulatory changes have had a dramatic impact on the way commodities are traded by financial institutions, imposing considerable staffing, retention and compensation challenges on the sector that was once the “sexiest” place to work. - The accelerating evolution of the energy delivery infrastructure has created demand for a new breed of hard-to-find human capital. - The emergence of social media has created an entirely new model for recruiting. A. Cullen & Associates, Inc. provides solutions to meet the changing needs and requirements of hiring managers at all ends of the energy spectrum. We partner with proven management teams at well-capitalized start-ups, global physical trading companies, large financial institutions, forward-thinking utilities, visionaries in energy technologies and private equity investors that are fueling growth in the energy sector.
