The Role
This position sits within our Energy, Infrastructure & Build (EIB) team, based from our Morson Edge office in Birmingham.
We are looking for an experienced recruitment professional to develop and grow a specialist desk within the construction and infrastructure market. There are two potential routes depending on your experience:
Option 1 – Planning & Commercial
Take ownership of a specialist planning and commercial recruitment desk, working across roles including:
- Quantity Surveyors
- Estimators
- Buyers
- Commercial Managers
- Planning professionals
- Wider commercial and project controls positions
This could operate as a dual desk, with a strong focus on business development, account growth and winning new clients.
Option 2 – Blue Collar / MSP
Develop a specialist blue-collar construction desk, working predominantly across MSP and managed accounts, with some opportunity to recruit into permanent positions.
This role would also have a strong business development and client management focus, allowing you to build and grow your own portfolio of clients.
Across either route, you will have the opportunity to work with a range of construction contractors, consultancies and major infrastructure organisations.

The Team
You'll join a collaborative team of 10, with 6 people sitting specifically within the Energy, Infrastructure & Build team.
You'll have the support, infrastructure and wider Morson Group network behind you, while still having the autonomy to develop your own desk, clients and market.
