Who We Recruit For?

At Cakum Global, we recruit high-performance professionals for site-based roles in mining, oil & gas, infrastructure, and emergency response projects. Whether it’s a remote mine in Africa, a high-pressure oil field, or a disaster recovery zone, we find people who don’t just fit the job – they’re built for it. These are roles where resilience, adaptability, and grit aren’t optional – they’re essential.

The Cakum Difference

We don’t just recruit – we’ve lived it. Our team has firsthand experience working in the same tough environments our clients operate in. That means we understand the real challenges, the cultural dynamics, and what it takes to succeed on site. We don’t rely on CVs alone – we dig deep, ask the right questions, and only recommend candidates we’d be proud to work alongside ourselves.

Only Pay When Your Hire Delivers

We stand by the people we place. That’s why we’ve flipped the traditional recruitment model on its head. With Cakum, you only pay once your new hire has started and proven they’re the right fit. No upfront fees. No gambling on potential. Just a guarantee that we’re as invested in your project’s success as you are.
