Our method

We start from the candidate, not from the job ad.

First we understand what drives a person: their values, their motivations, the kind of project they would want to work on. Then we look, among the companies we work with, for the one that genuinely answers those needs. It is matchmaking, not placement.

That is also why we choose our mandates. If a company is not attractive to the profile it is looking for, salary will not fix it: a candidate convinced by the project stays, a candidate bought with money leaves at the next offer.

  • Lower turnover

    People who join out of conviction, and not only for the pay, stay far longer.

  • Referrals that feed the search

    Roughly one candidate in ten comes from a referral by someone we have already worked with.

  • A market that tells us about itself

    The people we place keep talking to us: we know what it is really like inside a company, and the next match gets sharper.

Where our candidates come from

Half of the people we present were not looking for a job.

We do not wait for applications. Most of the profiles we bring to a client come from direct search and from people convinced by the project, not by an advert.

Direct search and outreach
50%

Profiles we identify and approach ourselves, often not actively looking.

Referrals from candidates
10%

Introductions from people we have already placed or advised.

Inbound applications and ads
40%

Growing steadily, while job ads on their own deliver less and less.

Indicative figures for the last twelve months. Inbound applications keep growing because we are becoming known as the reference point for green jobs in Italy, without ever having advertised.

Perché noi

What makes us unique in Green Jobs

Passion, specialization and continuous market analysis allow us to be the only company in Italy with deep knowledge of the green jobs market, supported by concrete data and a strong understanding of people and company cultures.

Market data and insight

Every search starts from numbers, not impressions: salary benchmarks, demand and supply trends, real time-to-fill.

In 2024 green skills were required in 4.4 million planned hires in Italy, 80.6% of the total.

When they really matter, the share of hard-to-fill roles rises to 49.4%, and to 51.5% when the company rates those skills as highly important, against a market average of 47.8%.

Specialisation in the green sector

Italy counts 3.3 million green jobs, 13.8% of total employment, growing 4.3% a year.

Meanwhile demand outpaces supply: hiring for roles requiring green skills grows 7.7% a year, while the pool of people developing those skills grows 4.3%.

Knowing the technologies, the players and the dynamics of the sector is what shortens the search.

We are also the only firm in Italy using proprietary tools, such as our green jobs orientation test, to reach candidates who are genuinely motivated.

A strategic, ongoing partnership

We believe in a collaborative approach: every search grows out of a continuous exchange between hiring manager and recruiter, active listening and shared feedback.

The partnership does not end with the hire but keeps growing, which lets us support companies on retention too.

Technical and cultural fit

Our recruiters speak the language of engineers: they understand the technological, regulatory and project complexities of the sector.

They can also assess cultural alignment, selecting profiles whose hard and soft skills match the identity of the company, from start-ups to multinationals.
