NES Fircroft Oil & Gas Job Vacancy (Wells ESP Superintendent)

NES Fircroft - In 1978, Northenden Engineering Services was established by co-founders, Geoff Lloyd and Bryan Sullivan. The company was known as NES International, NES Overseas and often simply "NES" before becoming NES Global Talent as part of a re-branding exercise in 2011.

The business grew impressively and was sold to AEA Investors in 2012 for £234m, more than three times as much as it was valued six years previously.

Due to our strong financial base, we have been able to make 7 strategic acquisitions in the last 5 years, adding Energy People, RC consultants, Sure Flow, Frontica Advantage, Ziegler's Oilfield Consulting, Redbock and Bedrock Petroleum Consultants to our portfolio. We began our journey as one of the leading oil and gas staffing providers in the industry, but as the company has grown and evolved so has our reach in to new sectors and we have successfully transferred the NES brand into complementary sectors such as Power, Renewables and Life Sciences. In 2020, we saw further growth following the strategic alignment between NES Global Talent and the Fircroft Group creating NES Fircroft - the leading human capital solutions businesses for engineering and technical talent globally.

Our 2022 vision is to provide the expertise which supports our clients as they accelerate the transition to sustainable energy production and secure a brighter future for generations to come.
