Construction jobs in today's market

In the current economic climate, the construction market continues to be challenged. Cuts in public spending have effectively stopped a large number of projects in their tracks. However, retail, refurbishment and private sector investment is set to grow. You can rest assured that Search will firmly align itself with key players in these markets so you can be sure to be given exposure to the best opportunities.

As clients seek to boost their "work winning" capabilities, estimators are increasingly sought after, as are experienced industry business development professionals. We are also keen to talk to the very best commercial and production professionals from the retail, refurbishment and commercial sectors.

Demand for freelance and temporary professions and trades and labour remains strong as companies emerge from the downturn. It may be that we have a temporary assignment available that could fill a gap or, if you're a seasoned freelance worker, it could be just what you're looking for. We are recruiting the following, nationwide:

  • Project managers
  • Site managers
  • Quantity surveyors
  • Foremen
  • Joiners
  • Bricklayers
  • Plasterers
  • CPCS plant operators
  • Slinger/banksmen
  • Gatemen
  • Painters and decorators
  • Groundworkers
  • General labourers
  • Hoist operators
  • IPAF operators
