Each has its own chemistry, kit, standards, hazards and talent pool. We recruit into all six because the sector needs a partner who can speak the language.
Zinc, nickel, chrome, copper, silver, gold and alloy plating. Rack and barrel processes. Hard chrome on hydraulic rods, rollers and precision components. We recruit process engineers, chemists, line supervisors, quality managers and operations leaders across general industrial, aerospace, defence and automotive platers.
Sulphuric, chromic, hard and architectural anodising. Chromate and trivalent conversion coatings, phosphating, passivation. We recruit across architectural anodisers, aerospace finishers, specialist hard anodisers and general industrial converters.
Architectural powder coating to Qualicoat and BS EN standards, high-performance industrial coatings, contract finishing and wet paint systems. We recruit production managers, quality leads, applicators, BDMs and directors across architectural, industrial and coating equipment manufacturers.
Case hardening, carburising, nitriding, vacuum, atmosphere and induction processes. We recruit metallurgists, process engineers, furnace managers and quality professionals across commercial heat treaters and captive in-house facilities.
HVOF, plasma, arc and flame spray. Wear, corrosion and dimensional restoration for aerospace, energy, oil and gas. We recruit coating engineers, operators, development chemists and commercial leaders across specialist sprayers.
Thin-film deposition, DLC, tool coatings and next-generation surface engineering. We recruit R&D scientists, process engineers, coating chamber specialists and commercial leaders across vacuum and plasma-based surface technology businesses.
Every surface engineering business needs the same six functional capabilities: process engineering, quality, EHS, continuous improvement, maintenance and controls, and commercial. We recruit into all of them, at every level from graduate to director.
