- Grow to a £100k+ team – clear path to scale the team and revenue.
- Excellent client base – you’ll inherit strong relationships and warm business.
- Top-performing location – Southampton has consistently ranked within the top 10 C&P offices in the UK.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we’re looking for
- Someone who has managed within a C&P setting previously
- Strong understanding of white-collar technical recruitment (civils, surveying, planning, FM etc.)
- Ability to lead, motivate and develop a team.
