Senior Construction Jobs

The roles on this page are senior and specialist construction jobs I am retained to fill, with main contractors, civil engineering and specialist contractors, consultancies and the client bodies that commission the work. They run from director and head-of-function seats to the senior commercial, delivery, planning and estimating roles that sit beneath them, across UK construction and infrastructure, with some searches overseas.

Every listing is a live search where I am talking to people now. A search runs six to eight weeks from brief to accepted offer, and each conversation is confidential from the first call: nothing about you reaches a client until you have agreed it should.

If nothing here fits, that does not mean nothing is coming. Most executive construction jobs at this level are never advertised, and a good share of the searches I run each year begin with someone who was not looking. Get in touch for a confidential conversation about what is in the pipeline, or read how a search works from the candidate's side and what the director seats paid this year.

Testimonials

I have had the pleasure of working with Scott over a number of years. I have to say it's been a breath of fresh air. If Scott makes an appointment, he sticks to it; if he says he will call you at a certain time, he does. I find Scott is a mixture of old-school values and his finger firmly on the pulse of modern recruitment technology. It has been my pleasure working with him, and long may it continue.

Mike Thomson
Executive Leader - Building Resilient Businesses

Working with Scott whilst searching for a new role was a very good experience. Scott helped me understand the opportunity and helped align my strengths to it, providing me with further confidence when interviewing for the position. Scott was happy to take the time to keep me updated with the process and its progress and I always felt he really wanted the opportunity to be the right one for me. Highly recommended.

Jerry Coll
Head of Building Services - Russell WBHO

Scott is as sound as they come, straight talking and no nonsense. Was pro-active in getting me my current role and I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for their next opportunity

Neil Coker
Project Director

I've worked with Scott both as a client and candidate; both experiences were a pleasure. Too many in the recruitment field are reactionary and transactional; Scott is neither. He is the consummate professional - proactive, with an attention to detail and a determination to do the best job he can for his client and the potential candidate(s). This makes any recommendation a very straightforward process.

Keith Gourlay
Commercial Director

I’ve known Scott for over 20 years. He is a top-class recruiter with an in-depth knowledge of the market, employers and candidates. Easy to talk with, practical and realistic, I’m happy to provide a recommendation for him and his services.

Paul Taccagni
Managing Director

It was great working with Scott, given his very professional approach and good knowledge of the Construction industry. Scott understood my professional expectations and career aspirations, which led me to an accurate employment opportunity. What probably works in Scott's favour is his previous experience in the Construction Industry, which enables him to relate to clients better and gives him a leading edge over other headhunters. I would highly recommend Scott Lechley to anyone seeking career advice or a change of contracts.
