Cleantech & Alternative Energy

SPECIALIZATION OVERVIEW

As global attitudes toward conservation and resource planning evolve, the world community looks to scientists and entrepreneurs to deliver “clean” solutions for energy generation and storage.  Alternative and renewable energy platforms have a bright future as nations seek to create electricity grid parity that lessens their reliance on fossil fuels. 

As with any industry that undergoes technological transformation, the companies and investors in the energy sector who attract the best talent will exert disproportionate influence over the industry as it evolves.  With the explosive demand for progress in clean and alternative energy, there is an increasing need for specialized talent across the board.  Our clients are pioneering renewable energy product and business model innovation.  From Fortune 500 corporations to emerging start-up ventures, they all have something valuable to offer as Cleantech becomes the 21st Century’s first real mandate.

CTPartners’ Cleantech Practice has the right experience and know-how to help companies identify candidates for key leadership roles. In this growing and dynamic area, it is imperative to recruit leaders who can innovate across technologies and business models, while driving efficiency and having the ability to adapt quickly. 

We have been an active player in the Cleantech and Alternative Energy field and understand the flow of human capital within it.  CTPartners works with large industrial firms as well as emerging companies that create breakthroughs in areas such as photovoltaics, fuel cells, batteries, wind, nuclear, bio-fuels, building materials, energy storage and environmental mitigation services.  Both private equity and venture capital firms have retained us to find talent for their portfolio companies as well as for the firms themselves.

Like many industries today, a global reach is essential in Cleantech. Clients rely on us to leverage our international network and deliver candidate slates that span across geographic boundaries. With CTPartners' global footprint, our practice specialists know who the industry stars are as well as the promising up-and-comers across North and South America, Europe and Asia.  We have dedicated Partners in the Practice that reside in each of these regions.
