Adam's bio
I am the Associate Director at Search Consultancy, specialising in the supply of staff to construction and civil engineering clients in the North West, Yorkshire and the Midlands.
Having commenced employment at Search in 2003, I have worked my way up from Consultant through to Associate Director. During this time, I have amassed vast knowledge of the industry and the service levels that our clients and potential clients demand. This knowledge has developed from working in partnership with numerous high profile clients and on some of the area’s most prestigious projects.
I am passionate about the industry and pride myself on being honest, respectful and trustworthy to the clients, colleagues and candidates that I work with.
Please get in touch to discuss how I can support your business needs.

He maintained communication throughout all of the recruitment process to answer any of my questions and ease any concerns.

Search were very understanding of my requirements and narrowed the selection without troubling me with unsuitable positions. Their communication was excellent and they ensured that every step was fully managed. Search is one of the best recruitment consultancies that I have dealt with."

All the teams are running flat out and her commitment to helping us out especially on these emergency contracts has been amazing."
