How DPA can help you unearth your potential
Through DPA’s bespoke array of services we aim to be the go-to for like-minded, progressive and innovative organisations and talent within the mining and natural resources sector.
Executive and Technical Search
Hiring the right leaders is integral to the success of the organisation and has a huge impact on the company culture and bottom line. We work together to identify the right leadership for your organisation based on your values, culture, and people, and we then apply this knowledge to unearth the best talent within the field using our proven search assessment to include our executive coaching and NLP techniques.
Choosing your search partner is also an important decision as they will act as your ambassador within the market place and it is essential they position you correctly in an honest, informed, passionate and positive manner to give the best impression of your organisation. DPA have worked with many of their clients for over a decade, often becoming an extension of their executive team and human resources departments which is a testament to their values of mettle, human, progressive and worth. Please see our case studies for more of what our clients say about us.
