Energy Recruiters Adds Three New Consultants

Couture, Hedleston, Brown will serve convenience, petroleum retail clients
BONITA SPRINGS, Fla. -- Energy Recruiters Inc. (ERI) has announced the addition of three new consultants to its executive recruiting team: Mark Couture, Tim Hedleston and Charlie Brown. ERI's new members will be serving clients in the convenience retail and petroleum marketing sectors. Jason McAuliffe, president of ERI, said, "Our ability to grow over this year has been a blessing, but the credit really goes to our clients who have been blocking and tackling, retaining and engaging new customers, and driving operational excellence."

Couture graduated from Northern Arizona [image-nocss] University before opening his first retail location in 1988. After 7 years it was considered one of the biggest operations in the state. He sold that location to a major corporation after 10 years of success. He has opened multiple retail locations and operated them for several years in addition to acting as a business consultant for 7-Eleven. After more than 20 years in the retail industry, Couture was recruited by another executive recruiting company, where he learned to put in practice what he knows about the retail industry. Couture was invited to join ERI this year.

Hedleston attended Bluffton College in Bluffton Ohio. Soon after, he began working for an executive search firm as an account executive, specializing in the retail and petroleum markets. He has several successful years working in the recruiting industry within different organizations. Hedleston is now working for ERI as an executive recruiting consultant.

Brown has 30 years experience in the recruiting industry servicing clients in retail, petroleum marketing and healthcare. He has spent his career with two different search firms specializing in the retail and petroleum markets before joining the ERI team.

Bonita Springs, Fla.-based ERI specializes in recruitment for the petroleum industry, covering the complete supply chain from refining through retail/end user.
