The desks

Six markets. Six teams that never leave them.

A Tethran desk is a small team that works one market permanently — the same sites, the same hiring managers, the same candidate community. Permanent and contract placements from every desk, every placement counted in the Hold Rate.

Data Centers & Telecom

Founding desk · opening Q4 2026

The buildout's tightest labor market. North American data center capacity is growing at record rates while commissioning and critical-facilities talent remains the thinnest pocket in construction. This desk places the people who take a site from energization to uptime — and the operators who keep it there.

Credential screening on every submittal: OSHA 30, NFPA 70E arc-flash, CDCP/CDCE where applicable.

Energy, Oil & Gas

Founding desk · opening Q4 2026

From producing basins to the grid the data centers plug into. We weight this desk toward power generation, utilities, and grid interconnection alongside traditional oil & gas — the seam where the energy transition and the AI buildout meet, and where the global contract-logistics giants are weakest onshore.

AI & Emerging Tech

Opening 2027

Enterprise AI, not frontier-lab poaching. This desk serves the ML engineers, data-platform leads, and AI-infrastructure roles at industrial, energy, and financial companies — the organizations our other desks already know — where AI talent has to work next to real operations.

Technology & IT

Opening 2027

The support desk, by design. When a client hires a commissioning team through us, they also need the network architect; when a finance client replatforms, that's an IT req. This desk exists to finish jobs the other desks start — not to compete with volume IT staffing on its own turf.

Life Sciences

Opening 2027

Bench to batch record, weighted to the manufacturing side. GMP production, quality, and validation roles track plant output rather than research funding cycles — a fit for a firm with industrial DNA, entering as biotech hiring recovers.

QA / QC Manager (GMP)Validation Engineer (CQV)Manufacturing SciencesProcess EngineerRegulatory Affairs Specialist

GxP-aware screening: FDA debarment and exclusion checks on every life sciences submittal.

Accounting & Finance

Opening 2027

The portfolio's stabilizer. America is short tens of thousands of accountants a year and CPA searches now run months — this desk provides interim coverage while the permanent search runs, then fills the seat for good. Both halves count toward the Hold Rate.
