Fuelling excellence at BHP
Our partnership

With a rich history dating back to its establishment in the late 19th century, BHP has continuously evolved, achieving remarkable success and solidifying its reputation as an industry giant.
Talent has been a key technology recruitment provider to BHP since 2011. Our expertise in sourcing and supplying skilled professionals, along with our focus on changing the recruitment culture, resulted in improved hiring practices, reduced project delays, and cost savings for BHP.
Their story
In late 2011, BHP engaged Talent to address their existing recruitment culture, which had led to poor hires, project delays, and excessive spending. We quickly demonstrated our capabilities by providing approximately 165 contract staff, covering a wide range of mining professionals. During this period, Talent became a vital partner for BHP’s high-profile 1SAP project, identifying and supplying around 65 SAP specialists across BHP sites in Western Australia.
