Manama: Gulf Connexions, a leading Bahrain-headquartered regional recruitment consultancy, has been appointed the official recruitment consultancy for the third Middle East Process Engineering Conference and Exhibition (MEPEC 2015), which starts tomorrow.

The three-day event is being held at the Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre.

MEPEC 2015, whose theme will be ‘Delivering Process Efficiency through Innovation and Value Creation’, aims to create a forum for process engineers to exchange information and experience and discuss solutions to engineering challenges.

Announcing the company’s strategic participation at MEPEC 2015, Gulf Connexions chief operations officer Hawraa Al Halwachi said international best practices are implicit in the firm’s recruitment services and this, combined with expert local knowledge, in-depth market intelligence and confidential candidate search, makes it the recruitment partner of choice.

“The partnership with MEPEC supports Gulf Connexions’ recent decision to expand into the energy and extraction industries sectors to meet the global demands of our multinational clients,” she added.

“We pride ourselves on the range and depth of our available candidates in order to meet the rigorous demands of our blue-chip clients, and our partnership with MEPEC is the perfect platform on which to exercise our capabilities and expertise in this key area.”

Widely recognised as a leader in fulfilling energy sector recruitment requirements across the Middle East, Asia and Europe, Gulf Connexions provides clients with professional candidates drawn from the upstream, midstream and downstream sectors of the industry.

Senior consultants from Gulf Connexions, which next year will celebrate its 10th year of operation, will be available throughout MEPEC, offering specialist advice to participating companies and potential candidates.
