Engineering recruitment requirements rarely follow a single hiring model. Different operational pressures, project timelines and business priorities require different recruitment approaches.
Roesveld provides permanent, contract and retained recruitment solutions across manufacturing, engineering and technical industries, supporting businesses operating within both long-term growth and time-sensitive operational environments.
Retained search is designed for businesses seeking the most secure, comprehensive recruitment solution across maintenance, reliability, controls, automation, production and specialist engineering functions.
This approach ensures complete market coverage by treating your vacancy as our top operational priority. By establishing a mutual commitment upfront, a dedicated search is launched to directly headhunt the top-tier passive talent who are stable, proven, and completely invisible to traditional job boards.
This model is structured through an agreed retained fee, usually paid at the beginning of the assignment or across defined stages. This partnership guarantees absolute resource priority, a unified market narrative, and complete visibility into the real-time progress of your assignment.
Contingency recruitment is designed for businesses seeking long-term engineering and technical hires across maintenance, reliability, controls, automation, production and specialist engineering functions.
This approach is typically used where workforce stability, long-term team development and operational continuity remain central to the hiring requirement. Recruitment processes are managed from initial search through to placement, including candidate sourcing, qualification, interview coordination and offer management.
Permanent recruitment fees are generally structured as a percentage of the successful candidate’s annual salary and are only payable upon successful placement. The exact fee structure is agreed prior to commencement of the assignment and reflects the level, complexity and scope of the hiring requirement.
Contract recruitment supports businesses requiring flexible access to engineering and technical expertise across project-led, interim or operationally urgent requirements. This is particularly relevant where engineering teams require immediate support across shutdowns, breakdown recovery, automation projects, maintenance backlogs, installations or production-critical requirements.
This model is commonly used for shutdowns, automation projects, production increases, specialist installations, temporary operational support or short-to-medium term engineering requirements where immediate technical capability is required without long-term permanent headcount commitments.
Depending on the assignment structure, contract recruitment can be delivered on either a fixed margin or day-rate basis, with commercial terms agreed in advance based on assignment duration, technical scope and engagement mode
