Background

Kelp Blue is an up-and-coming biotech and mariculture startup that operates across the full value chain of kelp (seaweed) cultivation and processing with the goal to boost ocean health and lock away CO2.

The cultivation of this large seaweed presents a pioneering nature-based solution to tackle climate change. Research shows kelp forests can sequester carbon dioxide at rates that far exceed terrestrial woodlands and has the ability to create healthy marine ecosystems.

Challenge

With headquarters in the Netherlands and operations in Namibia and NZ, the niche operations and innovative character of Kelp Blue makes recruitment a challenge. Talent that understands the demanding and fast-paced nature of start-ups was needed and this was taken in consideration by us.

WTS Energy, with its extensive talent pool and experience in recruitment for the renewable energy sector, started a recruitment campaign and hired highly skilled talent from across Europe.

Solution

We analyzed Kelp Blue’s needs, and then clearly defined the deliverables and deadlines, WTS Energy, then executed every step of the recruitment process, including advertising, shortlisting, screening, interview coordination, employment market data provision, and contract negotiation.
