Technical advancements

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. The challenge is exacerbated by the wide range of skills, experience and qualifications that many of the roles require.

Utility companies are under pressure to add advanced sensors to their smart grids and add devices that monitor energy usage more closely.
