Our approach
Recruiting for water-control infrastructure
Projects may involve embankments, concrete structures, spillways, gates, seepage controls, channel work and improvements to existing assets. We clarify the work package, water conditions, sequencing and owner or agency interfaces before defining candidate requirements.
Our approach
Project and field leadership
We recruit Project Managers, Civil Superintendents, Project Engineers, Estimators, Earthwork Superintendents, Quality Managers, Safety Managers and General Foremen. Candidate review considers relevant water-control structures and the work they personally managed.
Our approach
Direct outreach and qualification
Recruiters contact professionals directly and discuss dam, levee or flood mitigation experience, earthwork and concrete scope, water management, documentation and project phase. Any project-specific safety or technical qualification is verified with the employer.
Our approach

Relocation and travel
Relocation Placements
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
12-month replacement guarantee
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.
Three-Month Free Replacement
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.
Months Four Through Twelve: Half-Fee Replacement
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.
