Executive Search

In a competitive market, securing senior technical talent isn’t just about recruitment - it’s about strategy, insight, and access to the right people at the right time.

At Strata Consulting, our Executive Search function is built for clients who need to hire high-impact individuals where the cost of getting it wrong is significant.

We work on a retained, project-led basis, partnering closely with our clients to deliver targeted, intelligent search campaigns across the Civil & Structural Engineering & Construction sector.

What we do

• Advise on recruitment strategy and market positioning
• Conduct detailed market mapping and competitor analysis
• Identify and engage passive, high-performing talent
• Manage the full process from brief to offer and onboarding
• Provide insight on salary benchmarking and hiring trends
