And our relationships don’t end on day one of a new role – we pride ourselves on our ability to build long-lasting relationships with both clients and construction professionals.

What our clients say

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Holly, who played a pivotal role in helping our team hire two outstanding new employees this year.

Holly’s dedication, professionalism and keen understanding of our company’s needs were evident throughout the hiring process. We look forward to working with her in the future.

Commercial Director,
Main Contractor

Cityscape Recruitment USA is a great recruitment company. 

Danny Cranston helped me find a great position as a PM. I’ve been in my new role for a week, and I love it. 

The service was tailored to me and helped me find a job that matched my needs and made sure I received what I was looking for

Project Manager,
HVAC Contractor

Holly was great to work with. The fact that she does what she says and follows up places her far ahead of most recruiters. 

I definitely recommend speaking with Holly, and the rest of the Cityscape Recruitment USA team, if you are looking for solid help making a move. I’ll be keeping their number just in case the future deems I need it.

When you first contact us, be that through direct contact, responding to an advert or applying through our website, we will connect you with a consultant who works in your specialist area. 

Initially, they will arrange a meeting to talk through your CV and career history. They will encourage you to go into detail about your background and experiences, capabilities and responsibilities, personal circumstances and any other factors they feel are relevant to help them build up a well-rounded profile of you. 

We take extraordinary care in matching professionals to an opportunity – one that will help enhance their careers and a clients’ team. We therefore also use this meeting to empower you in your career. Using our extensive knowledge of the construction industry, we would provide in-depth overviews of businesses, projects and available roles, and guidance on where your strengths will add the most value and career potential. 

After this meeting, the consultant will speak to a number of their clients about you and your CV. Who they speak to can be either jointly agreed upon or you can trust the judgement and expertise of the consultant to contact clients they feel are the best fit for your experience and goals.

If any clients are interested in meeting with you, the consultant will manage the interview process, coaching you before any interviews if required. (Further guidance can be found here.)

If you are successful in receiving an offer(s), our consultant will communicate this with you and help to negotiate the offer(s) and any other terms of employment. 

Finally, we will support you in resigning from your current role, navigating potential counter offers and starting your new role.
