Logistics

Drivers, warehouse and transport operations professionals.

Industry Overview

Sector-specific manpower, not generic staffing

Manpower requirements are not interchangeable across industries. A steel fixer suited to a high-rise podium raft is not automatically the right hire for a refinery structural package, and a mechanical engineer from a factory maintenance background is not automatically ready for offshore rotation. Our sourcing, testing and screening are therefore organised by sector, not by generic job title.

Hire Across Global supplies workforce to construction, oil and gas, petrochemicals, infrastructure, building and factory operations, engineering, manufacturing and logistics employers across the GCC, the Middle East, Africa and Europe. For each sector we maintain trade-specific sourcing regions, assessors drawn from that discipline and screening criteria tuned to how work is actually executed on those sites.

The result is manpower that reaches productive output faster, needs less supervision correction in the first weeks and completes contracts at higher rates — the three metrics that determine whether recruitment was genuinely cost-effective.

  • Trade grading tuned to each sector's site conditions
  • Assessors drawn from the same discipline
  • Certification-led sourcing for safety-critical roles
  • Bulk and shutdown mobilization capability

Best Practices

How we protect quality in high-risk sectors

The higher the safety and technical exposure, the tighter the screening.

Certification validation

Welding qualifications, equipment operator licences and safety certifications are verified and, where required, re-tested before selection.

Scope-matched testing

Trade tests replicate the employer's actual scope — pipe positions, material grades, formwork systems — rather than a generic assessment.

Safety culture screening

Interviews probe incident history, PPE discipline, permit-to-work familiarity and behaviour under schedule pressure.

Medical suitability

Fitness criteria are matched to the environment: heat exposure, confined space, working at height or offshore rotation.

Supervision layering

We recommend the right foreman-to-worker ratio when supplying bulk crews, so productivity does not depend on the client absorbing supervision gaps.

Batch quality review

Feedback from the first batch is fed back into the sourcing criteria for subsequent batches on the same mandate.

FAQ

Industry recruitment — frequently asked questions

Which industries does Hire Across Global recruit for?

We recruit for construction, oil and gas, petrochemicals, infrastructure, building and factory operations, engineering, manufacturing, logistics and facility management, along with the white collar functions that support those projects — HR, finance, procurement, administration and operations management.

Do you supply manpower for shutdowns and turnarounds?

Yes. Shutdown and turnaround work requires rapid mobilization of certified welders, fitters, riggers, scaffolders, insulation technicians and QA/QC inspectors. We plan these mandates with staged batches and reserve candidates so that peak manpower lands exactly when the window opens.

Can you provide certified welders and safety-critical trades?

Yes. Certified welders, pipe fitters, riggers, HSE officers and QA/QC inspectors are sourced against the specific certification and test standard required by the employer, with practical qualification testing arranged before selection.

What experience levels are available?

From helpers and semi-skilled operatives to master tradesmen, foremen, site engineers, QA/QC inspectors, planners and project managers. Requirements are matched to trade grade and years of relevant sector experience rather than generic job titles.

Do you understand sector-specific compliance requirements?

Yes. Oil, gas and petrochemical clients often require certification validation, safety induction records and specific medical standards; construction and infrastructure clients require trade grading and productivity benchmarks. We build these into the specification before sourcing starts.
