Melissa Lin
Senior Consultant, Engineering & Energy
My Background
With over 3 years of experience in the recruitment industry, I specialise in placing talent within engineering, HSEQ, technical, and manufacturing roles across industries such as renewable energy, semiconductors, and B2B operations. My approach to recruitment goes beyond simply matching talent to roles—I believe that careers are deeply intertwined with life journeys. By understanding each individual’s unique story, I strive to uncover opportunities that align with their professional goals and personal values.
Roles I Recruit For
I specialise in recruiting for engineering, HSEQ, technical, manufacturing, and operational roles within industries such as renewable energy, semiconductors, and other B2B industries. Whether you’re a candidate exploring your next career move or an organisation seeking top-tier talent, my mission is to create meaningful connections that drive success and foster growth.
Outside of Ambition
Beyond recruitment, I’m passionate about solo travel and adventure, experiences that have profoundly shaped my outlook on resilience, curiosity, and connection. Some of my most transformative journeys include trekking solo to 4,800 meters in the Himalayas, walking 260 kilometers along the Portuguese Way to Santiago de Compostela, driving alone across Jordan amidst the Israel conflict, witnessing missiles streak the sky, swimming alongside majestic whale sharks, completing a 10-day silent Vipassana meditation retreat in Thailand, emerging with renewed clarity.
Recently, I took a bold step by relocating alone from Taiwan to Singapore. This move reflects my desire to bridge two key economic and political hubs in the Asia-Pacific region. These life experiences have left an indelible mark on me, often commemorated with tattoos inspired by the places I’ve explored.
