The Navigation Call · For commercial leaders

Forty-five minutes, and you do not have to be hiring.

Most of these start with a seat that has been open too long. Plenty start with somebody who wants to know what their market is actually doing before deciding whether to open one at all.

Both are the same conversation. It ends in a decision, not a CV.

What we talk about.

The state of the Quantity Surveying market as it stands now, and what that means in your sector rather than in construction generally.

What other commercial leaders in your position are doing about it. What is working for them, and what is not.

And where we have it, what your own market says about you. Why somebody turned you down. Whether your name opens doors in your region.

You get it on a page afterwards,

so whoever runs the hire can act on it.

Five headings, the same every time.

What we talked about

What you told us

What we would expect to see

What we would do about it

What we would need from you

It reads like a note from somebody who was in the room, because it is. One person here reads every one before it goes out.

What it is not.

Not a pitch, and there is nothing to sign at the end of it. We do not send anybody until we have done it.

Sometimes the page says do not hire yet.

Book it, or just ring.

Thirty to forty-five minutes depending on how much is going on. Bring whoever runs your hiring.

Matt helped us place a freelance QS whilst we had an opening for a new full time position.

Matt sourced the freelance position at the company I wanted to work for, and negotiated terms perfectly.

They came highly recommended from a close friend. When I was ready for my next commission, I reached out.
