How we support our partners

Search services designed for our industry

Solution works with construction and infrastructure businesses that need recruitment support they can rely on when project delivery is under pressure.

You deal directly with experienced consultants who understand the market, stay accountable throughout the process and remain available after the placement is made.

Our approach

A hands-on recruitment relationship

You work with the consultant responsible for delivering the search, not a separate account-management and certainly no chat bots. Keep the human in search.

We screen against both industry, and your requirements, as well as our own internal vetting for social and culture fits before introducing you to anyone. Not a minute wasted on irrelevant CVs for the sake of proving our value.

When the market is tight or your search is out of our remit, we will be honest. Our value is in our industry experience, and being up front is just as important for service providers as it is for practitioners.

How we work

From brief to delivery

01
Understand

We establish what the role needs to achieve and the pressure behind the requirement.

02
Advise

We apply current market knowledge and challenge the brief where needed.

03
Search

We use our established networks and direct outreach to find relevant people, who we have likely worked with before and can vouch for.

04
Deliver

Meticulously curated shortlist of experts to fit your requirements.

05
Consult

Use Solution as a resource as much as you need through our relationship. Whether that’s a catch-up coffee or resources for a presentation to the board.

Continuity matters

Many of Solution’s strongest relationships have lasted for years because clients continue dealing with people who know their business.

That continuity means less time explaining how you work and more time focused on finding the right person.

Regular conversations and face-to-face reviews also help us understand what is coming next rather than waiting for a vacancy to become urgent.

“I have worked with Solution for over 15 years now and they have become my go to recruitment partner. For me it’s always about the people and Simon Haupt leads a great team in his mould. They are knowledgeable, honest and not overly pushy, unlike some of their competitors. They are also good fun which is important to me. I strongly recommend Solution to any construction business and look forward to continuing my long term relationship with Simon and his team.”
