Property & Construction Talent Across Northwich

Northwich and mid-Cheshire have seen steady development in recent years, from residential schemes and commercial builds to refurbishment and infrastructure work. Behind every project is a team of professionals who keep it on time, on budget and built to standard, and finding them is rarely as simple as posting an advert.

Howard James Recruitment places property and construction professionals with Northwich employers across the full project lifecycle, from quantity surveyors, estimators and site managers to property managers, building surveyors and contracts staff. We understand the disciplines, the tickets and the pressures of a live site.

Good site and commercial staff are usually busy on a project, not scanning job boards. We reach them through our network and represent your role properly.

Why Howard James

Why Northwich Employers Choose Us for Property & Construction Recruitment

We Know the Sector

From site management to QS and property, we understand the disciplines and the pressures of a live project, and screen accordingly.

We Check the Tickets

CSCS, SMSTS, qualifications and accreditations matter on site. We verify them before anyone reaches your shortlist.

We Reach Passive Talent

Good site and commercial staff are usually mid-project. Our network reaches them where job adverts won’t.

Local to Mid-Cheshire

Northwich, Winsford, Knutsford and the wider North West are our patch. We know the schemes and the rates.

One Named Consultant

You deal with one person who learns your projects and needs, not a rotating team you re-brief each time.

Flex Fee Available

Spread a permanent fee over 12 weeks, with payments stopping if it doesn’t work out — useful for a key hire.

Flex Fee

Permanent quality, without the upfront cost

Hire on permanent terms from day one, but spread the fee over 12 weekly instalments. If the hire doesn't work out, the payments stop. It's the full quality of a permanent search with the cash-flow flexibility of a temp solution.
