Through specialist low carbon infrastructure recruitment and clean technology executive search, we deliver talent strategies that accelerate progress toward net zero.

As demand for resilient, future-ready infrastructure surges, Brightsmith partners with developers, operators, and investors to align leadership with digitalisation, regulatory shifts, and decarbonisation goals. Whether deploying high-voltage interconnectors, designing advanced substations, or expanding critical data infrastructure, we act as a seamless extension of your team. Our cleantech recruitment expertise ensures organisations secure the technical, commercial, and strategic leadership required for long-term resilience and sustainable growth.

Data Centers

Data centres are under pressure from surging AI and cloud demand, while facing scrutiny on energy use, ESG impact, and talent constraints. Operators must manage power procurement, grid congestion, and evolving regulations with precision. Brightsmith delivers low carbon infrastructure recruitment, connecting developers, investors, and operators with executives fluent in sustainability, stakeholder engagement, engineering, and technical delivery to ensure resilient growth.

Grid Infrastructure

Rising electrification and renewable integration make grid modernisation critical. Success depends on leaders skilled in planning, digital controls, systems integration, and flexibility markets. Brightsmith partners with TSOs, DSOs, and innovators to deliver clean technology executive search, sourcing talent with regulatory fluency, technical expertise, and commercial acumen. Our cleantech recruitment expertise ensures organisations secure leadership able to drive resilient grid transformation at pace.

Transmission & Interconnection

Transmission networks underpin the clean energy transition but face unprecedented technical, regulatory, and geopolitical challenges. Brightsmith supports utilities, EPCs, and developers through energy executive search firms, delivering leaders in high-voltage design, permitting, and stakeholder management. Our low carbon infrastructure recruitment expertise provides cross-border talent with the systems engineering insight and regulatory knowledge required to deliver interconnection projects that balance climate goals, national security, and market access.
