In Short Industry Recruitment Consultancy Founded 1990 Location Stirling Company size 0 - 49 About Us At Contract Scotland, we specialise in placing professionals
within the construction, property and engineering sectors. Covering commercial,
operational and technical disciplines, as well as shared service and support
roles, including HR, Finance, Administration and Marketing. The right job can be life changing, so when it comes to
using a recruitment consultancy to help you source that elusive dream job, you
need a team you can trust. Our job seekers survey shows that 100% would
recommend our service to a friend. We're pretty proud of that. With 28+ years of experience working solely with the
construction, property and engineering industry, we're not too shy to say that
we know our stuff, as well as the employers who operate within it. In fact, 65%
of our clients don't use anyone else to recruit, and 85% acknowledge that we're
better than our competition. That means access to jobs you won't find anywhere
else. Looking for a new position – why we’re different! You know how some recruitment consultancies don’t seem to listen to what you’re actually looking for?  Well, we do listen (radical, we know) and the result is you securing the job you desire with the right employer. This means that over 93% of our freelance workers are on contracts longer than their expected duration, and many permanent introductions have lasted over 20 years. Now that's what we call a good investment! Our team don’t work on commission – that’s about as unique as you’ll find in the world of recruitment consultancies.  For you it means that when you tell us you want a particular type of job, we’ll listen, check the boundaries with you, and then only propose options that fit that brief.  We’ve got no interest in pushing the wrong type of jobs, with the wrong employer, in the wrong location, just to earn a fee. Finally, you’ll have experienced recruitment folks sending your CV to the world and his dog? Well, you’ll always know who’s seen your CV via Contract Scotland, because our service is transparent, precise and well researched. We'll always consult with you first. In short, we’re different. But in a good way, that makes recruitment all about you and never about us. Working for Contract Scotland We’ve often been asked how we have such a low staff
turnover.  Customers have admired us and
wondered how our staff tenure is a remarkable 10 x the industry average – so
how do we do it? The magic formula is as plain as the nose on your face – it
stems from living and breathing our values of trust, expertise and
innovation.  We’re hugely principled and
have always focused on doing the right thing by treating customers and staff
fairly! Tending to grow our own employees, we’ve focused on hiring good people
who display the right characteristics rather than lifting recruiters from other
agencies, but we’re open minded, and love meeting anyone who might fit (or
change!) the mould! If you’re good (and you are good, aren’t you?), we’ll be
keen to hold on to you. So, working with us isn’t just a job, it can be the
start of a long-term career with a detailed training plan and support from a
dedicated mentor.  Our team have been
with us on average for 8+ years, so clearly people are happy to work here. Or
they have no homes to go to.
