Oil and Gas Headhunter Pittsburgh

Finding a senior oil and gas leader who is not looking requires more than a database search. It requires a headhunter who knows the industry from the inside — who understands the difference between a Marcellus Shale production engineer and a Gulf of Mexico deepwater drilling manager, and who has spent decades building the relationships that make those conversations possible.

PRL International is a retained oil and gas headhunter based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Philip Lamb has placed senior oil and gas leaders for ExxonMobil, Marathon, Occidental Petroleum, and Halliburton across the Gulf of Mexico, Equatorial Guinea, and Malaysia. He has spent 30 years building relationships with senior operators, engineers, and executives across the Appalachian Basin, the Gulf Coast, and international markets. When an oil and gas company needs a senior leader who is not on the market, he knows who to call.

Pittsburgh sits at the center of the Appalachian Basin — one of the most productive natural gas regions in the world. The Marcellus and Utica Shale formations have made Western Pennsylvania a hub for upstream operators, midstream companies, and energy services firms that require experienced senior leadership. Philip Lamb has been recruiting in this market his entire career. He knows who the players are, who the top performers are, and how to reach them.

Oil and gas headhunting requires technical credibility. A headhunter who cannot speak the language of the industry cannot earn the trust of the candidates they are trying to recruit. Philip Lamb understands upstream, midstream, and downstream operations. He understands what a VP of Operations actually does on a producing asset and what separates a strong candidate from the right one.

Every placement is backed by a 90-day replacement guarantee.

PRL International is a member of NPAworldwide, giving clients access to a global network of over 300 independent recruiting firms across the energy industry.
