Membership Journey

Kintec Global joined BABC Texas as part of our commitment to building strong, meaningful connections within the transatlantic business community. As we establish our new Houston office, it was important for us to align with an organization that shares our international outlook, supports UK–US collaboration, and brings together leaders across the sectors we serve. BABC Texas stood out as a natural partner—its network, reputation, and focus on fostering cross‑border business make it an ideal platform for our next phase of growth.

Our membership is already helping us deepen our understanding of the Houston business landscape and connect with organizations that value innovation, talent, and global partnership. We see BABC Texas as a gateway to building trusted relationships with companies across energy, infrastructure, technology, and professional services—industries where Kintec has long delivered specialist recruitment expertise.

In the coming year, we hope to further integrate into the BABC community, contribute to conversations shaping the future of transatlantic business, and collaborate with fellow members who are navigating similar challenges and opportunities. As we expand our presence in North America and continue to push the boundaries of AI‑enhanced recruitment, we see BABC Texas as a key partner in amplifying our impact and accelerating our growth.

What’s Ahead

Over the next 6–12 months, Kintec Global is focused on several exciting initiatives that reflect both our growth ambitions and our commitment to shaping the future of technical recruitment.

A major priority is the successful launch and scaling of our new Houston office.

This expansion is a key step in our long‑term vision to strengthen our North American footprint and better serve global projects that rely on specialist talent.

We are also accelerating our investment in AI‑driven recruitment technologies. From advanced talent‑matching tools to predictive workforce analytics, we’re integrating intelligent systems that enhance speed, accuracy, and candidate experience—while ensuring that human expertise remains central to every decision. These innovations will help us deliver even more strategic, data‑informed solutions to clients navigating complex hiring challenges.

Additionally, we’re expanding several of our specialist teams to meet growing demand across the Energy Transition, Life Sciences, and Digital sectors.
