The Challenge
METKA EGN, a global EPC and O&M contractor specialising in a wide range of solar and storage applications, required a Head of O&M to oversee solar sites across the Asia-Pacific region. The role was based in Greece but involved regular travel to the region.
The ideal candidate needed to be extremely flexible with working hours to align with the Australian time zone, possess Greek language skills, and have experience with projects in Australia. This combination of requirements made the search exceptionally challenging.
Our Solution
Despite these obstacles, Leap29 successfully identified a highly qualified Head of O&M. The candidate, based in the Middle East, was looking for an opportunity to return to his hometown of Thessaloniki, Greece. This recruitment process spanned four different time zones. The candidate’s extensive experience in the Australian renewable energy market and fluency in Greek made him an ideal fit for the role.
Our Results
This successful placement showcases Leap29’s ability to navigate complex logistical challenges and secure the right candidate for even the most demanding positions.
