We are proud to be featured in the latest EIC Survive & Thrive Insight Report, which explores how businesses across the global energy supply chain are responding to challenges, investing in growth and building for the future.
Our feature, “How a lifestyle business became a market leading clean energy talent partner,” shares the story of Mint Selection’s evolution from a founder led recruitment business into an insight led energy transition talent and advisory partner.
Founded by Charlie Giblin in 2016 without external investment, Mint Selection has grown into a team of 25, supporting more than 200 clients across Europe and connecting ambitious energy transition businesses with specialist talent.
The feature explores an important turning point in our journey. In 2022, Charlie made a deliberate decision to professionalise the business, invest in experienced leadership and build the systems, expertise and infrastructure required for sustainable growth.
It also looks at how we build long term partnerships with our clients, combining specialist search and recruitment with market intelligence, honest advice and a detailed understanding of the businesses and technologies we support.
Our long standing relationship with Statera Energy is one example highlighted in the report:
‘Statera Energy has worked with Mint Selection since our first year of trading. Over the past decade, we’ve grown to more than 200 FTEs, with the majority of our hires coming through Mint Selection. They’ve supported us throughout our growth, bringing strong market insight and representing our business professionally, making them a trusted partner.’
Being included in Survive & Thrive is an important recognition of Mint’s progress and the work of our team, clients and candidates.
