Since joining WRS straight out of University in July 2021, I made the move from Teesside to Manchester to become a part of the Oil and Gas recruitment team as a Trainee Consultant. Working alongside the experienced consultants in the team has been incredibly beneficial, as they provided me with valuable training and industry insights. Thanks to their support, I successfully placed my first job and have since flourished in European recruitment.
One aspect I truly appreciate about my journey at WRS is the level of trust and freedom I've been given in my role. This trust in my abilities allowed me to transition into Business Development after just 18 months. I've now been in this role for 8 months and I must say, I absolutely love it. What makes it even better is the clear progression plan laid out for me, providing exciting opportunities to grow our core business and even travel across Europe for client meetings.
I feel incredibly fortunate to be in a position where I can take on new challenges and explore exciting opportunities. The support and encouragement from WRS have been instrumental in my personal and professional growth over the past 2 years. I am genuinely excited about what the future holds, watch this space.
Lee Hall Business Development Consultant
I started at WRS almost 12 years ago with only a years’ experience in recruitment and zero knowledge of the energy sectors. I was given a PC, a phone, and a directive to go and explore the contract hire market in the Oil & Gas sector. Fast forward 12 years on and I am the Global Business Development Manager for the WRS Group, working across all our Energy divisions. I’ve spent time working in and developing all of our international offices. I am the client lead for most of our major accounts and more recently I have become a Director of our Joint venture businesses in East Africa. One of the key factors of my success is the autonomy the business has allowed me whilst constantly supporting the development work I have produced. Every step of the way our CEO and senior management team have been behind me to assess the opportunities coming to the table and make the right decisions on which to pursue. Together we have built and developed the international side of the group from a starting point of 10 people in South Manchester to our current standpoint of 5 global offices and a headcount approaching 100 people. I couldn't imagine working for another company. This is my home; this is my business, and this is where my heart is. Who we are and the work we do here at WRS defines us. The key to our success is the level of service we provide to our customers and candidates. Our reputation precedes us, and our client testimonials continue to verify this.
Chris Morton-Collings Global Business Development Manager
I have always had an interest in the Oil & Gas sector, it’s something I’ve had an ambition to get into. So, I was delighted when I saw the position advertised and even more delighted when I was asked to join the Contractor Care Team at WRS. On my very first day, I received a great training plan from Emma Upton (HR) and my manager Richard Baillie-Gray. The guidance and support within my role have enabled me to learn new things each day about the sector and I felt confident operating in my role very quickly. I genuinely enjoy my job and all the people that work here. I look forward to developing myself here at WRS.
