Connect delivers great contract resources quickly for projects such as engineers, project managers, site supervisors, drafters and other technical personnel , with an extensive network developed since 1994. Having seconded many people in multiple projects, we have detailed knowledge of their capabilities
On the permanent recruitment side, we help with a very systematic process targeted at skill, behavioural and cultural fit (its rigour reduces the chance of a poor hiring decision), and we search for repeating patterns of candidate behaviour in their career (a strong predictor of future behaviour). In particular, we are skilled in sourcing people who do not respond to advertising, but rather have to be proactively approached.
We also work closely with a select range of multidisciplinary engineering and project management consultancies. They can help with discrete packages of work that have defined deliverables. (e.g. a specific design component or project management of a key area).
Warren’s career in recruitment, management and consulting began in 1991. Since this time, he has provided services with the support of his teams to clients in the following sectors: consulting engineering (mining/minerals processing and commercial), mining, construction, oil/gas operating companies, energy, government, and manufacturing.
Warren has a strong technical background and holds a Bachelor of Business majoring in Strategic Human Resource Management from the University of Southern Queensland.
“Having worked in the industry and more specifically within Brisbane for over 10 years, Warren Pennell has remained my go-to person for hard to source vacancies for the past 6 years. Available, professional and ethical Warren stands out amongst the myriad of suppliers in the market. I can highly recommend Connect Personnel as a business partner for engineering subcontractors, consultancies and clients. ”
