Our approach

Recruiting before and alongside the build

Sitework and excavation can include grading, earthmoving, access, drainage, and utility coordination. We learn how the package connects to the overall project, what work is self-performed, and how the hire will coordinate sequencing with other teams.

Our approach

Sitework project and field positions

We recruit Project Managers, estimators, Superintendents, Assistant Project Managers, Project Engineers, general foremen, and foremen. Search criteria distinguish office-side quantity and planning responsibilities from field production and crew supervision.

Our approach

Assess logistics and production experience

We discuss how candidates have planned site access, coordinated equipment and crews, tracked quantities, and worked around project constraints. The employer's scope determines whether civil, building-site, or another related background is most relevant.

Our approach

Local coverage and travel-ready leaders

Our network includes construction professionals in the markets we cover, including local candidates willing to travel 100%. Nationwide candidates willing to travel 100% can broaden a search when a site needs a full-time traveler.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions.

Which sitework and excavation employers do you support?

We recruit for sitework and excavation contractors and construction teams hiring project and field leaders. We clarify the package, project setting, and self-performed work before defining the search.

What sitework positions can you recruit?

Searches include Project Managers, estimators, Superintendents, Assistant Project Managers, Project Engineers, general foremen, and foremen. We align the role with the office or field responsibilities the employer needs covered.

How do you evaluate excavation candidates?

We ask about site scopes, crew and equipment coordination, access planning, production responsibilities, and interfaces with other project teams. That context helps distinguish the experience needed for a specific site.

Can you find sitework leaders willing to travel?

Yes. We can reach local candidates willing to travel 100% and nationwide candidates willing to travel 100%. The project location and travel expectations are reviewed before an introduction.

What information helps define a sitework search?

Share the work scope, site conditions, project phase, equipment and crew structure, and how the position coordinates with vertical construction. We use these details to target relevant experience.

Is there an upfront recruiting charge?

A standard contingency search carries no upfront professional recruiting fee. The signed agreement sets the fee and terms for a qualifying hire.

Four steps, run by Ivan or a senior teammate.

01

We talk through the job, the projects, location, pay and why someone good would want it.

02

We find and speak with candidates

We call people with the right experience, including many who are not applying for jobs.

03

You meet the strongest matches

You get a short list with notes on each person. We set up interviews and share feedback.

04

We help you complete the hire

Relocation and travel

Location is part of the search.

We look locally first and discuss whether relocation or travel makes sense. A traveling superintendent's rotation, a PM's family move and a local commute are different decisions. We cover relocation help, per diem and timing before you meet anyone, not at the offer.

Placement protection

Candidate replacement guarantee

How long is the candidate replacement guarantee?

We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement.

Eligibility, exclusions, notification requirements, payment requirements, and replacement terms are governed by the signed client recruiting agreement.
