Stay in Control of Profitability & Commercial Success

Working within a subcontractor environment is different from working for a main contractor or consultancy. Here, you are at the core of protecting margins, negotiating aggressively, and ensuring your business remains profitable despite tough payment terms.

We specialise in helping subcontractor QS professionals land high-value contracts with specialist subcontracting firms—ensuring that they work with companies that appreciate their commercial expertise.

Why QS Professionals Stay in Subcontracting

Why Your Next Move Matters

Too many QS professionals are placed in roles that don’t match their experience, career goals, or expertise. Recruiters who don’t understand the industry push candidates into the wrong positions—leading to dissatisfaction and career stagnation.


At clearnorth, we ensure your next move is strategic, structured, and aligned with where you excel.
