Who we work with
Businesses that take hiring seriously.
We work across the built environment with contractors, subcontractors, FM providers and specialist businesses of all sizes. Whether you’re a regional SME or a national contractor, the approach is the same: understand the brief properly, search thoroughly, and deliver candidates worth interviewing.
Our clients range from regional SME contractors with fewer than 50 staff to national businesses managing multi-million pound programmes. What they have in common is a need for the right hire, quickly, with minimal friction. That’s exactly what we deliver as a dedicated construction recruitment agency UK-wide.

Trusted by construction businesses across the UK.
“
We’d struggled to find a decent Contracts Manager for months. Forward Talent came back with three strong candidates within two days. We hired one of them. Straightforward, no fuss, exactly what we needed.
James H.
Contracts Director, Regional Main Contractor, Hampshire
“
Good quality candidates, clear communication, and they actually understood what we do. We’ve used plenty of agencies over the years. The difference is that Forward Talent knows the sector properly.

We needed a senior Project Manager quickly after an unexpected departure. Forward Talent filled the role in under three weeks. The fee structure is transparent and the rebate terms gave us confidence to move fast.
