2. Our extensive experience and broad client base have taught us
that no two clients are the same and that delivering the highest
level of service to each and every client requires a modern,
flexible and dynamic recruitment model. BSV has developed
just such a model: The Level™
.
The Level™
amalgamates the full range of traditional
recruitment methods: Search and Selection, Contingency
Recruitment, and Contract Recruitment. It brings together
each of these services in a structured system developed
specifically for the unique requirements of the Construction
and Engineering industries.
This approach offers our clients an unprecedented level of
flexibility, allowing them to choose the specific recruitment
processes that are most relevant to their needs and forge them
into a tailored recruitment strategy executed and managed by BSV.
Established in 2005 and dedicated solely to the Construction
and Engineering markets, BSV has built a reputation as a true
specialist with unparalleled reach, an efficient approach and
a highly personal service. Today, BSV works with some of the
leading organisations in the sector, placing clients in the UK
and in overseas markets including Abu Dhabi, Jordan, Libya
and Turkey.
BSV Recruitment is a fast-paced business with the capacity
to meet tough recruitment goals within challenging deadlines
but without compromising quality. We have the technology and
experience, but also the elusive professional networks that are
vital to success. That’s why our clients trust us to provide an
expert, cost-effective service that saves them time and money.

3. The recruitment requirements of the Construction
industry are extremely demanding. It is not uncommon
for multimillion pound projects to launch with vital roles
that must be filled within timeframes of as little as a week
or even a day; and BSV Recruitment is uniquely placed to
meet and exceed these tough requirements.
We have a wealth of experience recruiting for roles
such as Planners, Design Managers, Site Managers,
Project Managers, Quantity Surveyors and have
unique experience in numerous specialisms including
Commercial, Residential, Energy construction projects,
Retail and Leisure.
With a number of recruitment specialists who boast over
10 years of construction recruitment experience, BSV’s
Construction recruitment team understands the unique
needs of the industry, as well as the sector-specific
strategies needed to deliver market-leading services.
We understand the highly cost-driven nature of the
Construction industry and make a concerted effort to
keep our rates competitive whilst delivering exceptional
levels of service.
We also understand the complexities faced by our clients
in the Construction industry, such as professional
indemnity, stringent health and safety requirements
and the complexities of programming and cash flow
management. All of this means that we know our clients
and our candidates better than our competition, making
us better at matching individuals to roles and delivering
a fast, efficient and cost-effective service.

industry focus
Our dedication to Construction and Engineering
industries means that we have the knowledge,
expertise and connections to deliver results quickly
and efficiently. BSV work on roles for professionals
up to director level as well as site operatives.
Construction Engineering
Facilities Management
We know that the work doesn’t stop when construction
and engineering is completed and your Client takes
ownership. Operation and management is vital to the
success of any construction. Facilities Management
and Maintenance is at the core of every organisation
regardless of size or activity. BSV provides
recruitment services at all levels from Cleaning
to Consulting appointments.
Working with HR
Within larger organisations, BSV recruitment can
improve the speed and efficiency of recruitment by
taking the burden off the HR/Recruiting manager. With
an extensive pool of work-ready candidates, many
of whom may not be on the active job market, BSV
allows our clients to start interviewing highly qualified
candidates straightaway, without having to sort through
piles of possibly unsuitable CVs. All this ensures that
vacancies are filled more quickly, saving you both time
and money.
Working with Management
BSV will often work directly with Senior Management,
perhaps where clients do not have a dedicated HR team,
or where the role to fill is sensitive or at the most senior
level. With a great number of demands on their time,
these clients appreciate BSV’s experience taking on as
much or as little of the recruitment process as needed.
Some clients use BSV solely to obtain CVs from qualified
candidates; others entrust us to conduct preliminary
interviews, evaluate candidates and run background
checks, allowing the client to minimise their time
investment and still find their ideal candidate.
Engineers combine physical principles established
hundreds of years ago with modern day cutting-edge
design techniques. At BSV we know that these highly
skilled individuals can be difficult to reach through the
more common recruitment approaches.
With such small numbers of highly specialist candidates
and challenges in establishing contact, many recruiters
can struggle to source even a few qualified candidates for
any given role.
BSV Recruitment is different. Originally founded by an
Engineer, BSV has extensive experience in this niche
market, with particular focus on Building, Energy
and Rail related engineering projects. Through this
experience, BSV has developed unrivalled networks of
skilled Engineering professionals from a wide range
of specialisms. We have experience placing all levels
of Design Engineers, Project Engineers, Estimators,
Maintenance Engineers, Facilities Managers and CAD
Technicians, most of whom could not have been reached
without our direct contacts.
Our Engineering clients choose to work with BSV
because we are uniquely equipped to source candidates
of the highest calibre for specialist roles, even when
timescales are very tight. And along with this speed
and efficiency, we also offer highly competitive rates,
providing exceptional value for money.

the ability to listen to our requirements,
advise us on the market place and provide
high quality candidates and recruitment
processes. BSV understands our industry,
business and culture and are highly
communicative in their approach.”

5. BSV Values
We understand that by going beyond the brief and establishing a wider, more complete
view of a client’s business and culture, we can deliver better candidates and better value.
Through sharing knowledge internally we gain a better understanding of the challenges
our clients’ face, whilst maintaining strict confidentiality at all times. By working together
we inspire and motivate our whole team to help us to undertake tasks successfully, which
in turn results in greater productivity, recognition and success for all.
balanced
We are built on experience and know the value of remaining at the cutting edge. That’s
why we ensure that we develop each and every member of our staff into a true industry
expert. Through networking, trade shows, journals, industry associations and an unrivalled
commitment to training, we ensure that our position as leaders in specialist Construction and
Engineering recruitment is unquestionable both today and long into the future. We work hard
to sustain long term relationships with our clients, knowing that we can continue to refine our
offering to meet a client’s unique needs. We become more and more efficient over time.
sustainable
We do not work in a fixed or predictable commercial environment. As the political and
economic climate changes around us, so do the needs, requirements and demands of our
clients and our candidates. BSV understands that our service offering needs to be flexible
enough to change as the industries around us change: that’s why we believe so strongly in
the importance of ongoing staff training, and why we ensure that our senior consultants
have the knowledge and confidence to work across both Construction and Engineering.
versatile
Our brand values are at the core
of everything we do.
They stand behind our very name, BSV, and highlight what makes us
a unique and respected partner for our clients and candidates. By
applying our core values to every aspect of our work, they give our
team a permanent touchstone to guide the decisions they make on a
daily basis; whilst laying the groundwork on which to build long-term,
successful relationships today and in the future.

quicker we can fill a role, the quicker
your business can generate revenue.
