Our Expertise
Oil, gas & energy recruitment
Upstream, midstream and downstream talent across Africa
Fill a vacancy
Our deepest networks and strongest sector knowledge sit in energy — so when we recruit across the oil and gas value chain, we understand the technical language, the operating environment, and what actually matters to the employer.
Our experience in oil, gas & energy
CSCL's leadership has worked inside the sector — including with an international oil and gas major and Nigeria's national petroleum corporation — not just recruited into it. That practitioner background means we assess candidates against the realities of the role, and give employers confidence that the people we present can perform in a demanding, safety-critical environment.
Where we recruit across the value chain
Upstream
Exploration and production roles — drilling, subsurface, petroleum engineering, and field operations across onshore and offshore assets.
Midstream
Pipeline, transport, storage, and logistics roles that move product safely and efficiently between production and processing.
Downstream
Refining, processing, distribution, and retail roles — from plant operations through to commercial and marketing functions.
Corporate & commercial
HR, finance, supply chain, business development, and governance roles that keep energy organisations running behind the scenes.
Why CSCL
Sector fluency, applied to every search.
Every candidate we put forward goes through structured screening, competency-based assessment, and reference verification — so a recommendation reflects a genuine evaluation, not a keyword match. In a sector where the wrong hire is expensive and the right one is transformative, that rigour is the difference.
