Director / Partners

Over the years, we have successfully placed numerous partners and directors into Construction and Real Estate consultancies. MD’s and Managing Partners choose us because we can meet their specific requirements, thanks to our in-depth knowledge of the marketplace and our ability to source candidates from reputable firms. Many of the directors and partners we have placed initially came to us at a junior level, and we have developed long-term relationships with them. They trust us to guide their careers effectively.

Associate

A significant number of candidates we have placed at the Associate level have progressed to equity positions within the firms we connected them with. We have a comprehensive candidate journey in place, where we discuss all aspects of your career ambitions, aid with CV amendments, and help you find the ideal position. We carefully select our clients (even rejecting some) and always offer a range of quality options for you to consider. We take your job search seriously and do more than simply distribute your CV around the market. Before submitting your CV for any position, we ensure you have full information about the company and role, and we prepare you thoroughly for your application.

Chartered Surveyor

We specialise in making placements for candidates at the Surveyor and Senior Surveyor levels, and this is the level that we place most of our candidates. This is an excellent time to make a move and build your career with a new company. Like our approach with other roles, we provide a candidate journey where we discuss all aspects of your career goals, assist with CV adjustments, and help you find the perfect position. We carefully select our clients (sometimes rejecting some) and always present you with a variety of appealing options. We take your job search seriously and ensure you are well-prepared for each application by providing detailed information about the company and role.

Part / Newly Qualified

In recent years, there has been a shift away from strict differentiations between newly qualified surveyors and candidates still on their APC journey. Many companies now recognize the value of candidates with over a year's experience and offer salaries beyond the typical "Graduate Trainee" level. It is also common for companies to price in the expectation of qualification within the next 6-12 months and provide remuneration as if the candidate is already qualified. If you are not yet qualified and feel that you are not receiving the necessary support, you can trust us to find a company that values your ambition to become chartered that offers a competitive salary.

Graduate / Assistant

Since our establishment in 2005, EC Property Recruitment has been providing entry-level staff to companies. We frequently work with smaller firms that do not have formal graduate recruitment programs. Additionally, we recruit for large firms that require replacements, have unmet quotas, or experience an upturn in market conditions necessitating the hiring of more graduate-level individuals. As a graduate, we understand that APC support and your professional development are top priorities. Therefore, we collaborate with clients who offer excellent APC support and development opportunities.
