The first official Leggwork employee hits his 5-year anniversary! 🎉

Not literally turning 5, but close enough to celebrate like it.

Five years ago, Daniel walked through the doors as one of LEGGWORK’s earliest team members. Since then, he’s been nothing short of instrumental, building our Trades & Labour division from the ground up, and for a period, running it entirely on his own.

Dan is a true embodiment of what Leggwork stands for. He goes above and beyond for both his clients and his tradespeople, leading with communication, honesty, and an unwavering commitment to quality. He won’t settle for anything less than the best, and that dedication shows in every placement he makes.

But it’s not just his work ethic that makes Dan a great part of the team. He brings energy, humour, and a personality that genuinely lights up the office.

Dan, thank you for everything you’ve put into Leggwork over the last five years. Here’s to many more. 🙌

đź”’ Leggwork is proud to announce that we are now official members of SafeRec.

In construction recruitment, compliance isn’t a nice-to-have; it’s everything. The people we place deserve to know they’re being paid correctly. The businesses we work with deserve to know their supply chain is watertight. And as an agency, it’s our responsibility to be able to prove it.

As members, every payslip processed through our umbrella partners is audited in real time and cross-referenced with HMRC, meaning we can demonstrate at any point that our workers are being paid compliantly and above board. No blind trust. No assumptions. Documented evidence.

For our clients, this means protection. Your supply chain is covered and you have peace of mind that the workers we place are in safe hands.

For our candidates, this means confidence. Every deduction on every payslip is independently verified. You’re in safe hands.

We’re committed to raising the standard in construction recruitment and this is another step in that direction.

đź’š This week is Mental Health Awareness Week, and the theme is Every Action Counts.

In construction, we’re good at putting up the posters. Posting on social media. Wearing the green hard hat. And then the week ends.

Don’t get us wrong, the posters matter. Awareness matters. But awareness without action only goes so far.

The truth is, the most important actions happen on the other 51 weeks of the year. On a Monday morning site visit. In the van on the way to a job. When someone says “yeah, I’m fine” and something tells you they’re not. Ask again. That second ask could change everything.

At Leggwork, we believe real support is built day by day, not one week a year. That’s why from this week, we’ll have two trained Mental Health First Aiders on our team, not just to mark the occasion, but to be a consistent, confidential point of contact for anyone who needs guidance or signposting to professional support, all year round.

Every action counts. Especially the small ones.

If you or someone you know needs to talk, The Lighthouse Helpline (03456 091956) and Mates in Mind (02035 105018) are there for you.

Big Move for LEGGWORK… Literally! 🎉

We’re thrilled to share that, as the LEGGWORK team continues to grow, we’ve moved into a fantastic new space in Stokes Croft!

Settling into our new home has been such an exciting moment for us. Looking back on how far the business has come over the past few years makes us feel incredibly proud and very grateful for everyone who has been part of the journey so far.

Just 4 years ago, we were a team of 3 working out of a shoebox-sized room at the HERE offices. Fast forward to today, and we’re now a team of 15 amazing people across 4 teams, with a space of our own to call home. It’s a huge milestone for LEGGWORK, and we can’t wait to show you around!

A huge thank you as well to Spectrum and for supporting us over the past 3+ years and for always helping us out with our daily questions, favours, and everything in between. We truly appreciate it! ✨

It’s that time of year again!

The AJ Bell Great Bristol Run on the 10th of May is fast approaching. This year, we have a fair few of our team members entering. First up, for the 10k we have Charlie who will be experiencing the race buzz for the first time! Alongside her will be her Father, who has kindly stepped in to replace George, who unfortunately won’t be making his third return this year.

In the big leagues, we have Dan and Justin running the half-marathon, both of whom are rather experienced in the running game, although going past the 10k mark is always a struggle!

No matter the experience, it is a challenge in different aspects for each person, and they are super excited to take it on.

As we do every year, we will be running for Young Bristol. If you have followed us for a while, you will know that we have been supporting Young Bristol since day one of LEGGWORK.

Young Bristol creates safe, supportive spaces where young people can build confidence, develop life skills and feel part of a community. Through youth clubs, outdoor programmes and employment pathways, they help young people navigate challenges and unlock their potential.

Their impact over the past year has been remarkable. They supported more than 1,800 young people across 21 communities, delivering over 2,300 sessions and more than 27,000 meaningful interactions. Even more encouragingly, 72% of those involved in their outdoor employment programme moved into education or work.

It’s an organisation that is not only supporting young people in the moment, but helping to shape stronger futures! Please donate to our fundraising link on our stories to help Young Bristol keep changing young people’s lives and keep amplifying the amazing work they already do.

Choosing a construction recruitment partner is often treated as a transactional decision - who can supply quickest, or at the lowest rate.

But in reality, the right partner plays a far bigger role in project success.

In today’s market, labour supply sits at the intersection of delivery, compliance and commercial risk. The way a workforce is sourced, engaged and managed has a direct impact on programme certainty, cost control and client confidence.

So what actually matters when selecting a recruitment partner?

Firstly, compliance and governance. This goes beyond basic checks. It’s about having full confidence that every worker is correctly engaged, right-to-work verified, and aligned with current regulations. In a sector under increasing scrutiny, this is non-negotiable.

Secondly, transparency. Clear visibility on who is on site, how they are engaged, and how costs are structured is critical. Hidden layers or unclear subcontracting arrangements can quickly become a risk for contractors and clients alike.

Thirdly, scalability. It’s one thing to supply a handful of workers, it’s another to mobilise and manage a workforce at pace across multiple projects without compromising quality or compliance.

And finally, consistency. Strong delivery isn’t about reacting when things go wrong. It’s about having the processes, systems and relationships in place to ensure the right people are in the right place, every time.

The construction industry is evolving, and expectations of labour partners are changing with it. Increasingly, it’s not just about supply, it’s about trust, control and long-term reliability.

At LEGGGWORK, we don’t CV fling, and we don’t just stand there when things go wrong. Being a partner and extension of your team is how we like to work. Creating a working relationship with clear communication, honesty and putting forward candidates that we feel fit the company, project and skill level.

Helping clients in any way that we can, because a project running smoothly isn’t always just about the labour supplied, it’s a helping hand with the faff. Whether that’s PPE, training, issues on site or compliance.

🏆 LEGGWORKER of the month! 🏆

This month’s award goes to Dan, and it’s very well deserved.

Dan has been making a big impact on site in Street, bringing a level of consistency and reliability that doesn’t go unnoticed. He’s been part of the Leggwork team for years and continues to prove why he’s such a valued member of it.

What sets Dan apart is his commitment to improving. He’s continuously developing his skills in his own time, taking on additional training and machine courses to keep progressing. That level of dedication speaks for itself.

This isn’t his first time picking up the award, which tells you everything you need to know.

Well done Dan. A great example of what LEGGWORK is all about.

March has been a .bristol Month, and this is what we have been up to!

Starting off with our Volunteer day on the 13th, where the team headed down to Bedminster Down to help spruce up the outside space. With just 30 plants, a pressure washer and a dream, we all got stuck in. Weeding, cleaning outside seating spaces and spreading bark. We all had such a great time. The result being a calm and a little more colourful space for young people to play, relax and have fun. Though it may not be Chelsea Flower Show worthy, we were pretty chuffed!

Then last week we had a fantastic time at the Young Bristol Dinner at the Pony, Chew Valley. During which we heard from some brilliant young people who have developed their skills and interests with Young Bristol, showcasing the incredible impact they are making across the city. Alongside this, we enjoyed some incredible food and spoke to some fantastic people.

And finally, this week, as we do every year, we played the role of the Easter Bunny! Delivering 680 Easter Eggs to the Stockwood location for Young Bristol to distribute across all the young people attending their youth clubs. A tradition that we love to do each and every year!

All in all, it has been a great month being able to catch up with the Young Bristol team so often and helping out where we can. What a great end to Q1!

Last week we celebrated two fantastic work anniversaries at LEGGWORK! 🎉

Ben marked 4 years with the business and Kamila celebrated 2 years.

Since his last anniversary, Ben has taken a leading role in developing our additional client and candidate services. He now manages the organisation of PPE, training and fleet management, all of which have been essential to LEGGWORK’s sustainable growth. Alongside this, Ben continues to keep candidate compliance in excellent shape while staying ahead of ever changing legislation.

Over her 2 years with us, Kamila has truly come into her own and developed extensive knowledge of our sector. She has built a strong presence within LEGGWORK by establishing her own desk and working closely with Justin to ensure our blue collar Civils team runs smoothly. It has been fantastic to see how naturally Kamila has grown into the role and the impact she continues to make.

Congratulations to you both and thank you for your outstanding commitment and hard work. It shows every day and we are proud to have you as part of the LEGGWORK team.
👏
