US Rail Operator's Success: Engineering Team Expansion Case Study
)
A major US Rail Operator retained Venari Partners to recruit a highly experienced engineering chief within production/maintenance to lead, develop and grow the function.
Having approached an alternative firm for support with their engineering team expansion, the operator did not receive an appropriate selection of candidates who matched the skill set that was required for this role. Venari Partners approached this project with a global search, mapping candidates who understood the rail industry and had extensive experience in railroad engineering and asset management.
The mapping process took around 4 weeks to complete, with a final shortlist presented within 6 weeks. The client was impressed with Venari’ attention to detail during the search and continue to be a close partner.
Gov joined Venari Partners in 2020 and leads the firm's Transportation & Logistics practice.

Passionate about the role of leadership in shaping the future of the industry, Gov takes a considered approach to helping organisations attract and retain the talent needed to navigate growth, transformation and changing market demands. His extensive sector knowledge and global network enable him to provide clients with valuable insight into the wider talent market.
