I’ve talked to a lot of amazing construction professionals who don’t want to work at some of the companies I suggest to them. Not because these companies are bad places to work. But because recruiters have reached out over and over again about the same positions (a lot of which didn’t actually align with the candidate’s background). This is partially on the recruiter (do your research!), but it affects the company more. If you feel the need to engage many agencies over many months to fill a position, something is going wrong. Before just answering the next cold call and signing up another agency, it might make sense to diagnose why this position has been so hard to fill. Finding an amazing Estimator or Project Manager isn’t easy, and if they already don’t want to work at your company, it quickly becomes impossible.

The US needs more SPECIALIST recruiters! I had a very interesting meeting yesterday with one of the A Players in the Florida Construction market. One of the main reasons they are keen to work with us is because we are Just Construction! It really got me thinking this is a company that most of the recruiters in the market should and will want to work with yet they still struggle to find recruiters who understand what they do. It is well documented that the US has less recruitment companies than there is in the UK, but this meeting yesterday really drove home how much this effects the quality that clients within construction are receiving across the US. The UK has been more focused towards targeted and specialist recruiters for a number of years and is defintely a switch that I believe the US needs to adopt in the future. If you are a construction company facing the same sort of challenges currently we operate across General Contracting, Roofing, Metal and Glass, Mechanical & Electrical and Drywall/Interiors. We will always welcome a discussion with clients who are struggling to source the right calibre staff and provide our expert knowledge of the market to source them. Likewise if you are a candidate I am looking to speak to standout Project Executives, Senior Project Mangers, General Superintendents & Senior Superintendents in Sothern Florida who would like an opportunity with one of the best construction companies in the US.

The Ultimate Guide to Hiring a General Contractor for Your Remodel

The Ultimate Guide to Hiring a General Contractor for Your Remodel

With economic uncertainty, many construction companies are re-evaluating their hiring needs, which directly impacts how we recruit. As projects face potential delays or budget reassessments, it’s important for recruiters to stay agile and put forward their best candidates. Here is what we are looking for when we speak with candidates: - Local GTA Experience: For construction roles in the Greater Toronto Area, 3+ years of experience with local codes, regulations, and market conditions is invaluable.  - Project-Specific Experience: a proven track record in similar project types. In high-rise residential construction, for example, hands-on experience in managing large-scale projects and working with specific materials (like reinforced concrete) can set top candidates apart. - Strong Communication Skills: The ability to communicate clearly with clients, teams, and subcontractors is essential. - Financial and Budgeting Experience: Construction managers and project leads should have a solid grasp of budgeting and cost management - Leadership Potential: Top candidates show an ability to lead teams, mentor junior staff, and foster a collaborative work environment. - Company Values: A candidate's alignment with company values and goals impacts retention. By focusing on a strong talent pipeline, we’re better prepared to respond to shifts in demand and support our clients as they adapt to changing market conditions.
