James Gray Recruitment

Belated Happy Easter everyone 🐰🐥!! Back in action with the team — starting the week with a matcha catch-up! 🍵 The civils market is really starting to ramp up, and it’s fair to say there’s no shortage of opportunities out there right now. If you’ve been thinking about exploring what’s available, it’s worth starting those conversations early. It puts you in a much stronger position to make the right move when the time comes. Always happy to have a chat about what the market looks like — no pressure, just a catch up (like this). #civils #civilengineering #qsrecruitment

Recently I’ve been thinking about the power of passive conversations... Not formal interviews or meetings, but quick catch-ups either over coffee, on site or out of hours. These are often the moments where people are most open and share insights they wouldn’t put on a CV or job description. As a recruiter only working with Quantity Surveyors, I’ve seen how these informal chats can genuinely impact a person’s career and overall success. They’re also a reminder that professional networks aren’t just about contacts... they’re about relationships. The strongest ones are built on curiosity and taking a genuine interest in others’ journeys. In my experience, the difference between good and great QS's often comes down to communication, commercial awareness, willingness to learn, and understanding the wider market. Progress doesn’t always come from big moves. Sometimes it’s the small conversations, repeated over time... As a recruiter, I’m happy to facilitate these “off the record” chats informally and confidentially as you never know where they might lead. Happy to chat! #quantitysurveyors #quantitysurveying #qsjobs
