About
A specialist desk, not a general one.
Founded in 2011, ACR are a specialist white collar construction recruitment agency dedicated to connecting skilled professionals with leading businesses across the construction industry.
- House Building
- Long-established specialism
- Perm & Temp
- Both handled in-house
- Named consultant
- One point of contact throughout
With more than a decade of experience, we have developed a strong understanding of the construction market and the people who drive it. We recruit across a wide range of professional and management level roles, building long term relationships with both clients and candidates and focusing on finding the right fit for every opportunity.
Our approach is built around industry knowledge, a strong network, and a straightforward, personal recruitment service. Whether supporting businesses with permanent or contract recruitment or helping construction professionals take the next step in their careers, we pride ourselves on delivering a reliable, knowledgeable and results focused service.
We are deliberately selective about how much work we take on. A shorter list of well briefed vacancies, worked properly, produces better appointments than a long list worked at volume.
ACR Construction is one of three specialist businesses within ACR Group, alongside ACR Trades & Labour and ACR Executive Search.

Four stages, from first conversation to first day
The same sequence applies whether we are filling a site vacancy or appointing a Managing Director. The depth changes, the principle does not.
- 01
Understand
We start with the detail, the scheme, the team, the reporting line and the package, before anyone's CV is discussed.
- 02
Advise
Honest feedback on salary levels, availability and what the market will realistically deliver.
- 03
Introduce
A short, considered shortlist. Candidate details are only ever sent with that individual's consent.
- 04
Support
We stay involved through interviews, offers, resignations and the first months in post.
What clients and candidates say
I've hired through the same consultant at ACR across two different employers now. They understand the type of site manager who works for us, so we see three or four genuinely relevant people rather than twenty.
They were honest with me about what the role was and what it wasn't. Nothing went to the client until I said yes, which is not how every agency operates.

A short conversation is usually enough for us to tell you whether we can help.
