Built on industry understanding and recruitment experience
ABOUT
Arc Potential was built to be focused, credible and straightforward to deal with. The business brings together electrical sector experience and established recruitment experience, giving clients a more informed approach to hiring across senior electrical roles.WHO WE ARE
The people behind Arc Potential
Matt and Rochelle set up Arc Potential to build a recruitment business with a clearer understanding of senior electrical hiring.
Between them, they bring experience from both sides of the process - recruitment delivery and electrical project environments. That leads to a better understanding of the role, the brief and what a strong hire needs to look like.

21
YEARS IN ELECTRICAL
OWNER & DIRECTOR
Matthew Nelson
Matt has 21 years of experience in the electrical industry, with leadership experience across commissioning, site and project management on large-scale electrical projects. His background includes major commercial builds and data centres, where he has worked closely with the demands, standards and pressures attached to complex delivery environments.
He has managed sites with work forces of more than 100 staff and has been directly involved in hiring decisions, workforce planning and engagement from the client side. That gives him a clear understanding of what businesses need from both a workforce and a recruitment partner.
That experience brings a more informed view of the roles Arc Potential supports, particularly where technical understanding, responsibility and delivery all matter.
WHY THIS WORKS
The value of Arc Potential
The value of Arc Potential comes from the combination of those backgrounds.
Industry understanding helps with better brief qualification, more realistic hiring conversations, and a clearer view of what a role actually requires. Strong recruitment and commercial experience helps ensure the process is well managed, well communicated, and focused on the right outcome from the start.
That combination is what shapes how we work: with clarity, honesty and a strong understanding of the level we operate at.
