Engineer Parental Cover

Because our interim engineers prefer project-based roles, you gain access to experienced profiles who wouldn’t normally apply for temporary jobs. That means you can keep moving through fast-paced projects, product cycles, and delivery milestones—without compromising quality or wasting time on lengthy recruitment processes. 

Expert Matching for Engineering Roles

We don’t just match resumes—we match experience, mindset, and industry context. Our network includes engineers and technical leads with expertise in energy, automation, renewables, and infrastructure.

Less paperwork. More project focus

We take care of contracts, salary, insurance, and tax. One monthly invoice. No payroll admin. With signed NDAs, your intellectual properties stay secure while you stay focused on what matters.

Ready to cover from day one

Our interim engineers can start in days—whether you need cover for 2 weeks or 2 months. They’re used to quick handovers, communicate clearly, and deliver value from day one with minimal onboarding.

Avoid project delays during leave—without permanent hiring

Hiring maternity/paternity covers takes time you don’t have—especially when leave overlaps with critical phases like commissioning or delivery. Our engineers step in fast to keep momentum and ensure no time is lost.

Flexible contracting. No strings attached

Our contracts are tailored to your needs. Since our engineers aren’t employed under the Danish Salaried Employees Act, you avoid notice periods, pension costs, and other obligations—giving you budget control.

Guaranteed success

If the fit isn’t right, we’ll find a fast replacement at no extra cost. That way, you minimize risk and avoid project delays—while still getting the job done right.

We assist our clients in achieving their project goals on time and within budget, by supplying them with qualified personnel

We can typically provide a qualified interim engineer to cover your employee within just a few days. Because we maintain a ready-to-deploy network of specialists, we don’t start the search from scratch. When you reach out, chances are we already have the right person in our pipeline—ready to step in where and when needed.

Not at all. Our setup is designed for flexibility. You can scale your engineering capacity up or down depending on your project’s development. Whether you need a cover for 2 weeks, 2 months, or longer, we tailor the contract to suit your timeline—without long-term obligations.

Yes. While many of our engineers are used to being physically present in office environments, remote or hybrid setups are absolutely possible—depending on your needs and the task. We match profiles based not just on technical expertise, but also adaptability and communication skills, which are essential for successful remote collaboration.

Costs depend on the specialist’s seniority, domain expertise, and the scope of work. That said, interim hiring typically reduces your total employment cost: you avoid expenses like holiday pay, pension, social contributions, severance obligations, and unemployment insurance. Our engineers are not subject to the Danish Salaried Employees Act (Funktionærloven), meaning fewer liabilities for you. You receive one consolidated invoice—simple, predictable, and without payroll admin.

Yes, absolutely. While we handle the initial screening and shortlisting, you’re always welcome to meet the candidate before making a decision. Many clients choose to conduct a short interview or technical discussion to ensure the right cultural and professional fit. We encourage this as part of a transparent and collaborative process.
