Although we are not exclusively a construction recruitment agency, Number 8 draws on a heritage of establishing and running construction businesses in New Zealand and the UK. Having direct knowledge of the challenges faced to build a team that will complete your projects according to the standards your business has established, sets us apart from most agencies. When we talk to candidates we know exactly how to match their experience with an employer who will benefit from thier specific background.
Construction Recruitment is not all about CV word searches and we have complete confidence that if we know what the role demands, we will only put candidates forward to our clients who we believe to be suitable for that role. We carry out targeted searches in the market place to uncover the people who are looking for new opportunities or challenges.
Our knowledge of the industry gives us some ability to think outside the box when searches are failing to identify the right person for a role. Sometimes skills and experience can be transferable from outside the sector. The ability to identify these individuals and put a case to our clients is what sets us apart from recruiters who simply go through the motions.
