FAQS
Which critical infrastructure organisations does Guidant Global work with?
We partner with the asset owners, operators, tier one contractors and supply chain partners behind the UK's essential services, across energy, data centres, water, chemicals, communications, civil nuclear and transport. Support runs across the whole asset lifecycle, from plan and design through build, equip, support and operate, and develop and own.
How do you make sure candidates are site ready before they mobilise?
Tickets, registrations and clearances are confirmed at briefing stage, not after an offer. That includes EUSR and SHEA registrations, National Water Hygiene, CSCS and ECS cards, HV and LV authorisation, and BPSS, SC or DV clearance where the site requires it. Everything is evidenced before a candidate arrives at the gate, so there are no surprises on day one.
Can you supply security cleared candidates for nuclear and other sensitive sites?
Yes. We regularly place candidates who already hold live BPSS, SC or DV clearance. Where a role needs a new or upgraded clearance, we work to your sponsorship and vetting timelines and factor them into the mobilisation plan, so the programme date reflects what's realistic.
Can you mobilise a full project or outage team at short notice?
Through Project Recruitment, we mobilise named teams against a construction programme, an outage or shutdown window, or a commissioning date. Teams are resourced against local labour availability, travel and rotation requirements, and work to defined outcomes rather than simply filling seats.
We use several agencies across our sites. How can you help with IR35 and governance?
Guidant Global can operate as your single specialist partner, or govern a wider supplier ecosystem through a Managed Service Provider model, giving you consistent sourcing, vetting and rate standards alongside visibility of spend, time to fill and supplier performance. Under the off-payroll rules, status determinations remain with you as the end client, and we'll support a consistent, auditable process across every site.
What if the skills we need simply don't exist in the market?
Where the market can't supply a capability, our Recruit, Train, Deploy model sources people for aptitude, trains them to your standard and the required competence scheme, then deploys them on site. Our Early Talent routes add graduates, apprentices, ex-forces and returners, because a retirement wave isn't solved by hiring the same people twice.
