Head of North America Human Resource, Global Commodities Trading Company
- Client, Energy Search
I have worked with RWR over the past 12 years in three different capacities. They placed me in a shop when I was young in my career, then I used them as my primary resourcing firm as a finance manager to build my team. Now, as I am in charge of Human Resources, they are my primary resourcing firm for my North American hires. I stay with RWR because they are always accessible when you need them and they understand my organization’s culture and needs, saving me time in the candidate screening process, and allowing us to get top talent quickly. I have worked with the same core people for many years, showing me that RWR supports their employees and, in turn, those employees support their clients well.
Vice President of Trade Finance – Global Trading, Transportation, Storage and Distribution Company
- Candidate, Energy Search
RWR was a great firm to work with. Their consultants are very professional and always available to respond to any questions and issues. I found them particularly knowledgeable in the oil & gas sector, and specifically (for me) in trade finance. They were very personable and helpful during the negotiation phase with my now current employer and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to my colleagues in the future.
CEO of Business Area Americas
- Client
My interaction with Richard Wayne and Roberts has always been highly professional. Alexis Rogers provided value to our organization by significantly filtering through applicants to ensure the best fit both technically and culturally. Timely feedback was received keeping me abreast of the status. Exactly what is required.

Asset Manager, Retail Energy Company
- Candidate, Energy Search
Kristi Pickett possesses an excellent knowledge of the energy sector and has relationships with a wide network of individuals. She went above and beyond to make sure that I was going to be placed into an organization that aligned with my values and would be an excellent opportunity. I would highly recommend Kristi for any of your energy recruitment needs.
EVP Human Resources, Crude Oil Trading and Marketing Company
- Client, Energy Search
I have worked with Truett Allen and his capable team at Richard, Wayne and Roberts for many years – even working with RWR beginning in the late 1980’s when the firm was fairly new. Over the past 15 years or so my career has mainly been in senior HR leadership positions in independent commodity trading and energy services’ firms. During this entire time, Truett and his team have been my “go-to” resources for identifying strong candidates – primarily for middle and back office positions. They have a fantastic network that they have developed over the years and Truett has a strong understanding of these roles and the types of candidates who will be successful in both the job and a good match for our company culture. They also have an appreciation for the fast pace of our industry and can identify candidates quickly. I have recommended Truett and RWR to many of my counterparts (and some folks seeking employment) over the years and have always enjoyed a close working relationship with Truett and his team.
