About / Baxter Nelson
Specialist search and market intelligence for independent engineering and environmental consultancies.
Hiring gets difficult when the brief matters. The obvious routes tend to produce the obvious people, while the strongest candidates are usually already busy, well regarded and hard to reach.
Baxter Nelson combines focused search with market intelligence to give consultancies a clearer view of the talent around them and direct access to people who can add real capability.
We work across civil and structural engineering, fire, transport, water, ecology, ESG, hydrogeology and geotechnics, with a particular focus on the hires that need judgement, context and a properly run search.
How we approach the work
Know what will make the hire succeed before going to market.
Test the brief against the people, firms and realities in the market.
Keep the brief, market feedback and decision close throughout.
