Transforming Construction Projects: Our Success in Recruiting Elite Technical Talent

TRANSFORMING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS: OUR SUCCESS IN RECRUITING ELITE TECHNICAL TALENT

The Construction Industry is incredibly competitive, and skilled professionals are often in high demand. This can make sourcing and appointing these individuals challenging, especially if you’re working to tight deadlines.

Here at Mackinnon & Partners, we make it our mission to provide our clients with candidates who not only meet the skill requirements for construction roles but are also a perfect fit culturally and professionally for the organisation.

Take our recent success with recruiting elite technical talent, for example. Our client requested our support in placing a talented MEP Project Manager with a Houston-based General Contractor. This individual needed to be highly skilled, experienced and knowledgeable in a range of areas of construction. We searched far and wide, utilising our extensive networks to find only the most suitable candidates.

Through a rigid sourcing, screening and selection process, our Recruitment Team successfully identified an ideal candidate and helped the individual relocate to Houston to work on a huge healthcare project. A big win for all involved!

Recruiting high-level individuals for your construction organisation requires a solid team effort. Here’s why making a Specialist Recruitment Experts part of that team can be so beneficial…

 

Construction Recruitment Benefits

Industry Expertise

Our Recruitment Team is in a unique position that allows them to have an omniscient overview of the Construction industry. They have their finger on the pulse and are in tune with the ebbs and flows of hiring within the industry. This means they have an in-depth understanding of what makes an excellent construction candidate, particularly with high-level technical roles. We can source, screen and select ideal individuals due to our deep understanding and knowledge of the industry, with the added experience of successfully appointing candidates numerous times.

 

Sourcing Passive Candidates

Our extensive network across the construction industry allows us to use a strategic approach to passive candidates. High-level individuals tend not to be visible on traditional job boards, meaning it’s easy to miss the opportunity to connect with them if you’re using traditional hiring methods.

Here at Mackinnon & Partners, we strategically reach out to and build relationships with passive candidates in the construction industry so that they too have the opportunity to consider the role you’re offering. Many of our most successful appointments have been passive candidates.

 

Customised Solutions

Our Recruitment Team understands that each project is different. We take the time to truly understand your organisation and its needs before embarking on our candidate search. This means that the candidates we identify as being potential hires meet the required criteria not only in terms of skills and experience but also in cultural fit. We find this drastically minimises the risk of a bad hire.
