Our approach
Survey support for construction
We recruit construction surveyors for layout, control, topographic work, as-built information and related field responsibilities. We learn which tasks the hire performs and how the survey team coordinates with construction operations.
Our approach
Field methods and clear records
Candidate discussions cover instrument use, data collection, layout accuracy, site communication and records. We ask about the project environment and how the surveyor works with engineers, supervisors and project managers.
Our approach
Licensure tied to role and jurisdiction
Some positions require a licensed surveyor, while others are field or crew roles under a licensed professional. We confirm the applicable scope and credentials with the employer.
Our approach
Local and traveling survey crews
Our network includes local surveyors and candidates willing to travel 100% to project locations. We clarify site conditions, assignment length and team structure 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.
