Finding, Hiring, Retaining
Exceptional Construction & Real Estate Development
Can Seem Like Mission Impossible
HI! MY NAME IS Greg Ivory
PRESIDENT
I help Commercial Construction and Real Estate Development leaders field top-class teams fast, without compromising an ounce of quality, ensuring you get the RIGHT talent, at the RIGHT time, at the RIGHT price for your critical projects.
Commercial Construction and Real Estate Development companies are struggling with a perfect storm of challenges - project teams stretched thin, critical positions sitting empty for months, and the pressure to deliver on time mounting every day. Beyond just finding top-tier construction and development professionals, I work closely with my clients throughout the entire process. After each interview round, I provide honest feedback to help you fine-tune exactly what you're looking for, ensuring each subsequent candidate is a better fit than the last. I also keep my finger on the pulse of industry trends and market shifts that could impact your hiring strategy, so you're always one step ahead when it comes to building your team.
We understand the importance of finding the right candidate for mission-critical construction positions. We have developed an effective methodology to quickly and accurately identify candidates with the necessary skills, experience, and qualifications.
Our goal is to ensure our clients get the best candidates for their open positions. To do this, we consider every detail of a client’s requirements and use our extensive talent database to match them with ideal engineering professionals. We are dedicated to providing an exceptional customer experience through transparency, professionalism, and responsiveness.
