Supporting Kier with specialist MEP recruitment
Finding skilled candidates for Kier’s MEP recruitment team
Established in 1928, Kier Group plc is a leading provider of infrastructure services, construction and property developments.
The group has approximately 10,000 employees and 400 live projects, delivering its services across the UK.
Given the size and scope of Kier, and the projects the group works on, recruiting the best staff for each role is especially important for its MEP recruitment team.
MEP services encompass a wide range of specialist roles, and the challenge for Kier is finding those skilled candidates.
A specialised recruiter – a specialised MEP recruitment service
As a specialist recruiter for MEP jobs in the construction and engineering industry, Vincent Gurney offered Kier a specialist agency and high-quality candidates that were the right fit.
Specialist knowledge
MEP services encompass a wide range of specialised white-collar and blue-collar roles, including engineers, designers, project managers, technicians, plumbers and electricians.
Expertise and reach
Our team has the expertise, reach and tools to find the right candidates for Kier’s MEP requirements.
Personal service
As a smaller business, Vincent Gurney offers a more personal service and is well placed to support Kier’s recruitment function.
Efficient recruitment
Our approach is designed to support Kier’s recruitment function and help make the process more efficient.
One point of contact and a clear recruitment process
Kier has a single point of contact at Vincent Gurney – Dave Hayden, Principal Recruitment Consultant – who continues to build a strong relationship with the business.
Kier has a certain process it works to, which Vincent Gurney follows alongside its own procedures, including regular updates and keeping the lines of communication open.
This also includes standard compliance services such as checking each candidate’s suitability for the role, qualifications and right to work.
The streamlined process benefits both Kier and Vincent Gurney, helping ensure the best use of time and a clear return on investment for the client.
Principal Recruitment Consultant
Supporting Kier across specialist MEP roles
In the last few months, Vincent Gurney has successfully recruited and placed a Project Engineer, BIM Manager and Senior Mechanical Estimator, and remains a key supplier in supporting Kier.
Vincent Gurney is now a preferred supplier to Kier
In the time that we’ve been working with Kier, we’ve worked together on filling a number of MEP roles and based on that success, as well as our consistent communication and availability, we’ve built a really great relationship. So much so, we’re now the first port of call when Kier needs an MEP vacancy filled.
I think the key thing is that we really understand Kier’s business and the types of candidates that would fit, beyond the normal expertise and experience needs. When it comes to onboarding the specific jobs, we go to great lengths to make the job spec our own, to reach a wider range of the right candidates, and ultimately ensure we’re getting the best candidates to present to Kier.
