Stop Hiring Blind. Start Hiring with a Strategy.
Hiring in Quantity Surveying shouldn’t feel like rolling the dice. But for most companies, it does. They post a job ad. They get flooded with irrelevant CVs. They scramble to fill a role. And in six months, they’re back at square one.
That’s not hiring—that’s hoping. And in the most competitive market in the UK Construction industry, you don’t have time to gamble.
At clearnorth, we know what you want to know. And we’ve built clearnorth complete - The Strategic Hiring Model —a structured, 5-step process designed to lock in high-calibre Quantity Surveying professionals before your competitors even know they’re available.
The Problem with Traditional Quantity Surveyor Hiring
Best Quantity Surveying Talent
Isn’t Applying
The professionals you want aren’t browsing job boards—they’re delivering results elsewhere.
Recruitment Agencies Waste Time
Most construction recruiters don’t understand the market, so they spam CVs and hope one sticks.
Bad Hires Cost
You Big
The wrong hire means wasted time, lost money, and another hiring cycle six months later.
With more than 42,000 Quantity Surveyor roles advertised across the UK in 2024, it’s clear the demand for top-tier talent in this industry is at an all-time high. However, securing the right fit for your business requires a strategic approach—one that goes beyond simply filling a vacancy.
Hiring should be a competitive advantage—not a risk.
The Solution: The NORTH Process
We don’t send CVs. We don’t “see who’s available.” We run a structured, strategic hiring process that works.
Step 1 - Navigate Market Insights
We share real-time market trends, salary data, and passive talent gaps.
You gain strategic clarity on how your hiring challenges stack up to the market — no guesswork, just actionable insight.
Step 2 - Opportunity Identification
We shift focus to your specific hiring need and test early alignment.
You see what’s realistically possible based on your requirements — and start accessing candidates other recruiters can’t reach.
Step 3 - Relationship Alignment
We decide together if we’re a fit. We explain what needs to happen for success — and walk away if alignment isn’t there.
You avoid wasting time on the wrong approach and gain a partner who treats your hiring like a project, not a transaction.
Step 4 - Strategic Talent Planning
We co-create a tailored hiring roadmap, reduce unrealistic expectations, and finalise the brief.
You shift from reactive to strategic, increasing speed and precision — and attracting better talent as a result.
Step 5 - Handover Excellence
We act fast post-offer, support onboarding, and stay involved for months to ensure success.
You keep the talent you’ve worked hard to attract — with a partner who makes onboarding smoother and candidate retention stronger.
