It takes more than qualifications to make a great temporary worker 👷

We know trade-specific skills and experience are essential, but so are interpersonal skills.

For temporary labourers moving between different sites and teams, being able to communicate clearly, adapt quickly and work well with others can make all the difference.

That’s why we take the time to get to know the person behind the CV. We want to understand not just what you can do, but how you work.

Projects 🤝 Supported

Next up in our series highlighting some of the major projects C&P has helped support - the Queensferry Crossing

If you’ve driven across it, you’ve travelled across a project that C&P Recruitment helped to deliver.

It’s not every day you get the opportunity to supply people for one of Scotland’s most recognisable pieces of infrastructure, a bridge that connects communities and carries around 80,000 journeys every day.

Opened to the public in 2017, C&P supported several sub-contractors, supplying experienced:

• Concrete Finishers
• Dumper Drivers
• Shot Blasters

It’s pretty special knowing that people we placed helped build something thousands of us rely on every day.

Planning a major infrastructure project across the North of England, Central Belt or North of Scotland? Get in touch with the C&P team to see how we can help.

Thinking about your future? Don’t overlook the trades 🛠️

With almost one million young people currently not in employment, education or training, we’re encouraging young adults to look beyond the traditional career path.

From construction and site management to skilled trades, there are countless opportunities to learn, earn and build a rewarding career while gaining practical skills that are in demand.

A successful career doesn’t have to start with a university degree. Sometimes, it starts with the opportunity to learn a trade and get your foot on the ladder.

Could construction be the right path for you? Get in touch today.

A great CV doesn’t always mean a great hire.

With AI making it easier than ever to create a polished CV, getting a real sense of the person behind it is becoming even more important.

That’s why we still believe in picking up the phone and having a proper conversation.

We speak to candidates, get to know their experience, what they’re looking for and what they’re actually like, while getting under the skin of what our clients need beyond the job description.

It takes time, but that’s the legwork good recruitment requires, and it’s our job to do it.

What makes a good job in construction?

Is it the salary, the projects, a good team, job security or knowing there's a chance to progress?

We're finding that candidates increasingly want to understand the whole opportunity before making a move, not just what's on their payslip.

With good people in demand, employers need to think about what makes someone want to join and stay.

What matters most to you when choosing a job?
