London’s Hays Expands Into Houston

Texas Business reports:  LONDON—Hays, a specialist recruiting group, opened an office in Houston.

This is the second Hays office to open in the U.S. this year and it will focus on the recruitment of skilled staff for the oil and gas industry.

The development of the Houston office will be spearheaded by Hays North American president John Faraguna, a long-term Houston resident with bachelor’s and master’s degrees in geology and many years of experience working in the industry.

Faraguna will be supported by Matt Underhill, global director of Hays who oversees the development of the oil and gas business for Hays around the world.

“We have a great opportunity to become valued partners of energy companies and the service industry.  The highly skilled workforce in this sector such as geophysicists, reservoir engineers, drilling engineers and IT professionals, are a key asset for all the companies involved in finding, producing, refining and distributing oil, gas and associated products,” Faraguna said in a prepared statement.

Houston is home to many companies with whom Hays has relationships in Europe, the Middle East, Asia or South America.
