A direct route to the right hire
Share the position, location and what the hire needs to own.
We approach and qualify construction professionals before making introductions.
A fee is due only for a qualifying placement under the recruiting agreement.
Building automation work can connect HVAC controls, sensors, controllers, networks, and operator interfaces. We clarify whether the opening covers installation, programming, integration, graphics, or project delivery, and how the controls team works with mechanical contractors and building owners.
We search for controls Project Managers, project engineers, estimators, programmers, commissioning specialists, and field supervisors. Outreach distinguishes hands-on controls experience from broader mechanical or electrical work when the opening requires specific platform, integration, or sequence-of-operations knowledge.
We discuss how candidates have coordinated submittals, point-to-point checks, functional testing, issue resolution, documentation, and owner training. For field roles, we establish the expected balance of installation oversight, programming, troubleshooting, and customer communication.
We use direct outreach to connect with local controls candidates in the markets we cover, including local professionals open to 100% travel. Nationwide candidates willing to travel 100% can be considered for full-time travel roles after the assignment and expectations are reviewed.
The kind of construction leadership we know how to find.
Searches can include controls Project Managers, project engineers, estimators, programmers, commissioning specialists, technicians, and field supervisors. We define the technical and leadership balance at intake.
We can recruit for either, but clarify whether the work is construction installation, retrofit, integration, or ongoing service. That distinction helps target relevant controls experience.
We discuss systems and integration scope, the candidate's role in programming or field delivery, and experience with testing, documentation, and handoff. Specific platform requirements can be included in the brief.
Yes. Outreach can include local candidates willing to travel 100% and nationwide candidates willing to travel 100%. We review location and travel demands with candidates before an introduction.

Relocation and travel
Over the last few years we've filled more and more positions with candidates willing to relocate on their own, or with minimal initial relocation help from the client. We always fill with local candidates when possible. But relocation placements are a specialty of ours, and we know how to make them work for clients who are committed to filling the position.
Placement protection
On standard (non-reduced) fee agreements, every placement comes with a 3-month free candidate replacement guarantee. From months 4 to 12, we'll still replace the candidate at half off. That's a full year of coverage. We've never needed to use the extended guarantee.
Extended coverage applies to eligible placements billed and paid at the full standard fee under the signed client recruiting agreement.
If a placement billed and paid at the full standard fee separates for a qualifying reason within the first three months, Construction Headhunters will conduct one replacement search for the same or substantially similar position at no additional professional recruiting fee.
If the hire separates during months four through twelve, the client receives one replacement at half the standard professional fee. Applies only to original placements billed and paid at the full standard fee.
Eligibility, exclusions, notification requirements, payment requirements, and replacement terms are governed by the signed client recruiting agreement.
