WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Yaw Boateng has been instrumental in supporting our European offshore wind projects for over seven years, consistently sourcing senior-level professionals, including Director profiles - across multiple disciplines for our wind farm developments in the UK and EU.
What truly sets Yaw and the simpleenergy team apart is their blend of technical and commercial expertise, unwavering reliability, and a consistently professional approach.
These qualities not only reflect Yaw’s personal dedication, but also represent the high standards and core values that define simpleenergy as a trusted and long-term partner in the renewable energy sector.

Christoph M.CEO, IPP client

It’s a real pleasure working with simpleenergy, particularly in the field of power transmission and distribution, where deep sector understanding is essential.
What sets them apart is their ability to recognise individual competencies while also bringing strong commercial awareness and negotiation skills to the table. This rare blend of human insight and business acumen is what makes simpleenergy such a valuable partner.
Since 2017, our collaboration has been built on trust, professionalism, and clear communication. Their structured, proactive approach has supported complex offshore and onshore infrastructure projects, from offshore grid connection to landstation, cable, and overhead line construction.
With professionals like Yaw leading the way, I’m confident simpleenergy will continue to deliver targeted, thoughtful recruitment solutions in even the most demanding environments.

Franziska D.Finance Program Director, TSO client

It’s rare to come across standout professionals like Yaw Boateng. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and working with him for nearly two years - as a colleague, a candidate, and now as a client.
Yaw has an exceptional ability to understand both talent and motivation, which allows him to make highly effective matches between candidates and roles. Thanks to his deep network, he reached out to me at just the right moment with an opportunity that aligned perfectly with my career goals.
I now serve as HR Director - a move that was made seamless through his clear, transparent, and high-quality recruitment process.
Working with Yaw in a team was always energising. No matter how complex or tense the recruitment cycle became, he ensured every interaction was positive and productive.
Today, I continue to work with simpleenergy as a trusted recruitment partner. Yaw and his team consistently deliver, particularly when it comes to engaging highly qualified, passive candidates that are often beyond the reach of traditional methods.
Their approach is not only strategic, but deeply tailored to our niche needs.
I’m confident simpleenergy will remain an invaluable partner as we grow.

Andrea G.HR Director, IPP client

Working with Yaw was a turning point in my career. He helped me re-enter the industry I truly wanted to be part of by taking the time to fully understand my goals, motivations, and personal needs as a candidate.
What stood out most was Yaw’s empathy and his consultative approach. He not only matched me with a suitable opportunity but also guided me through a mindset shift - highlighting how the role aligned with my long-term career path.
His ability to communicate the broader value of the position convinced me to move forward with confidence.
I’m grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend simpleenergy to anyone seeking a recruitment partner who combines insight, empathy, and real industry expertise.

Farah W.Engineering Manager OSS, candidate

Yaw Boateng played a key role in placing me in my current position at Les Éoliennes en Mer Services via Sumitomo, and I’m pleased to recommend him and simpleenergy based on this exceptional experience.
Though the placement occurred before the founding of simpleenergy GmbH, the level of professionalism, dedication, and service Yaw delivered reflects exactly what his company stands for today.
He took the time to understand my background and career goals in depth, which allowed him to represent me effectively and ensure the role was a strong match.
Throughout the process, Yaw remained a steady, supportive presence. His transparent communication, timely updates, and honest feedback helped me stay well-informed and confident from first interview to final offer.
What sets Yaw apart is his human approach to recruitment. His genuine commitment to connecting people with meaningful opportunities is evident in every interaction.
With simpleenergy now bringing that same level of care and excellence to clients and candidates across the renewable energy sector, I can wholeheartedly recommend Yaw as a trusted partner in recruitment.
