Over the past two years at Petroplan, Beatrice Minciu has built a strong reputation across EMEA oil and gas markets, supporting EPC and operator clients in complex, fast-moving environments. Her work is defined by consistency, clear communication, and a focus on long-term relationships, ensuring both clients and candidates are supported throughout the recruitment process.

Beatrice specialises in delivering talent into technically demanding roles, where understanding both the project and the person is critical. Fluent in Romanian and with close ties to the Black Sea region, she brings valuable regional insight at a time when investment in wind and oil and gas activity in that area is accelerating. This combination of market knowledge and language capability allows her to operate effectively across international teams and diverse stakeholder groups.

Her approach is straightforward but effective. Candidates are kept informed, expectations are managed, and conversations are followed through. Where others might prioritise pace, she focuses on continuity. It’s a disciplined way of working that builds trust and leads to stronger, longer-term outcomes.

That mindset has delivered tangible results. Beatrice was recently promoted to Senior Consultant, reflecting both her performance and contribution to the team. She has also delivered the largest placement of her career to date, where a client’s initial search evolved significantly following the introduction of a high-calibre candidate. It’s a clear example of the value that thoughtful, well-managed recruitment can bring.

Petroplan has played a key role in that journey. The business provides a supportive and collaborative environment, where knowledge is shared and people are encouraged to develop their own style. Flexible working, early Friday finishes, and a clear progression structure create a framework that allows individuals to perform at a high level while maintaining balance.

What stands out most is the culture. There is a strong emphasis on communication, teamwork, and building trusted relationships with both clients and contractors. It’s an environment where consistency is valued, and where doing the basics well, every time, makes the difference.

For Beatrice, the role is ultimately about people. The calls returned, the expectations managed, and the commitment to keeping individuals informed, even when the outcome is uncertain. Over time, that approach has shaped how she is perceived: reliable, professional, and trusted to deliver.
