Our assignment support services deliver peace of mind for contractors and businesses alike
We facilitate seamless mobilisations
Getting staff to an energy project in a remote location can be challenging and legally complex, especially when dealing with an expatriate workforce containing many different nationalities. For contractors, the prospect of travelling to an unfamiliar and sometimes turbulent location can be daunting, and the risk of culture shock very real.
In addition to our recruitment expertise, Weldan Gemilang Utama, PT offers industry-leading contractor mobility support services, comprehensive insurances, and manages contractor payroll needs to ensure they are supported at every phase of a project.
We support contractors throughout their assignments, making life easier all round
We cut out the middle person, taking care of all contractors’ logistical needs to ensure that new starters are comfortable and ready to start on the agreed date.
Through looking after contract workforces, we take away logistical headaches which allow hiring managers to focus on their business, and contractors to feel assured. Whether you are a contractor looking for work, or a business looking for contract staff, our regional teams are based in your time zone, communicate in the local language and develop a true understanding of local culture and practices.
