Walker Elliott is a technical search firm based in Houston, recruiting upstream oil and gas technical professionals nationwide and IT professionals across Texas. Their focus on building relationships within these disciplines has allowed them to find exceptional active and passive candidates for even the most challenging-to-fill positions. "Our success comes from our experienced team, long-term relationships in the marketplace and our ability to deliver top professionals for difficult-to-fill searches," said Betsy Elliott, Managing Partner. "Our recruiting professionals average 14 years in tenure and bring extensive expertise and relationships within their specialized niches. This allows us to consult and advise our clients through the entire recruitment process – building strategies that allow us to do more than provide talent that meets their immediate technical needs – but is also the right long-term strategic match."
