Our approach

Recruiting for bespoke residential work

Custom homes bring together detailed architectural intent, changing finish decisions, specialist trades and close owner communication. We learn how the builder manages procurement, schedule and quality, and what decisions the new hire is expected to own.

Our approach

Project and field leadership

Searches can include Project Managers, Construction Managers, Custom Home Superintendents, Assistant Project Managers, Estimators, Project Engineers and finish-focused Foremen. We compare candidates' direct custom residential experience and trade coordination responsibilities with the actual opening.

Our approach

Direct outreach and candidate qualification

Recruiters contact construction professionals directly and discuss project history, scope ownership, finish coordination, client-facing responsibilities and interest in the opportunity. We establish compensation, location and schedule expectations before presenting qualified candidates.

Our approach

Local expertise and travel-ready reach

We have a strong candidate network in every market we cover. When a project requires it, we can also reach local candidates willing to travel 100% and nationwide candidates willing to travel 100%, with travel requirements confirmed before an introduction.

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.
