The client

GS-Hydro provides on-site piping for offshore, marine, paper and steel customers. It needed a permanent pipefitter-welder to keep up with growing demand.

The challenge

The role meant three-quarters of the time in the field, with frequent overnight stays and travel abroad.

It also needed experience of welded and non-welded systems in stainless and carbon steel, spool fabrication, pressure testing, mechanical forming and reading engineering drawings.

What we did

We found a pipefitter-welder with the right skills and the right attitude to travel, including:

  • MIG, TIG and stick welding
  • stainless steel, carbon steel and other materials
  • mechanical forming and pressure testing
  • experience of pipefitting and welding abroad

The outcome

GS-Hydro gained someone who could work wherever customers needed them, at home or abroad.

Projects were finished on time, to the company’s quality and safety standards.

Whichever side of the hire you're on, we'll pick up.
