Good questions
Frequently asked questions.
What do you review when recruiting Senior Project Managers?
We discuss relevant project delivery, team leadership, coordination and client responsibilities. The search prioritizes experience aligned with the assignment.
Do you recruit for owner-side senior PM positions?
Yes. We recruit Senior Project Managers for contractors, developers, owners and construction managers. The search distinguishes owner representation from contractor-side delivery.
Can you find Senior PMs willing to travel full time?
Yes. Our network includes local candidates and candidates nationwide who are willing to travel. We review site, schedule and rotation expectations before an introduction.
How are recruiting fees set?
The signed recruiting agreement sets the applicable fee and terms. A standard contingency search has no professional fee unless we place a candidate you hire.
Do you contact Senior PMs who are not looking for work?
We use our network and direct outreach to reach experienced Project Managers. We discuss the role privately and share candidates with the employer only after confirming interest.

Relocation and travel
Location is part of the search.

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.
