We chose these four industries and stayed in them. Below is a breakdown of who we place and what that looks like in practice.
We place engineers across manufacturing, industrial, and infrastructure sectors. The roles range from project-level positions to senior technical and management-track placements. Most of our clients in this vertical are mid-sized manufacturers, engineering consultancies, and industrial firms across Maryland, DC, and Virginia.
Discuss a RoleDesign, analysis, and improvement of mechanical systems. Ranges from product development to plant and process equipment roles.
Technical oversight and coordination on engineering projects. Often a stepping stone to PM, but also a long-term career track for those who prefer the technical side.
Analysis and design of structural systems for buildings, bridges, and industrial infrastructure. PE license common at mid-career and above.
Site development, grading, drainage, utilities, and transportation infrastructure. We place in both public and private sector environments.
Optimization of manufacturing and production processes. Common in chemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and industrial manufacturing settings.
Technical leadership roles overseeing engineering teams and programs. Requires a blend of hands-on background and management experience.
We work with general contractors, specialty subcontractors, and owners' representatives across commercial, industrial, and civil construction. The market here is competitive and we know it well. Good project managers and supers are genuinely hard to find, and our network in this vertical reflects years of building those relationships.
Discuss a RoleFull project lifecycle ownership from preconstruction through closeout. We place PMs at every level, from first-time to senior and VP-track candidates.
Field leadership on commercial, industrial, and civil projects. Strong supers with clean safety records are among the hardest positions to fill in this market.
Preconstruction cost estimating for GCs and specialty contractors. We place estimators from junior to chief, across both hard-bid and negotiated work.
Supporting PMs and supers with documentation, submittals, RFIs, and field coordination. Common entry point for four-year construction management graduates.
Site and corporate safety programs, compliance, and incident management. Experience with OSHA standards and an active credential are standard requirements.
Senior leadership overseeing multiple projects and teams. Often involves P&L responsibility and business development alongside operational oversight.
We recruit IT professionals for companies that need people who can actually do the job, not just check boxes on a requirements list. Our focus is on infrastructure, systems, data, and application-level roles, primarily for mid-sized companies in the mid-Atlantic that don't have a large internal talent acquisition team.
Discuss a RoleManagement of servers, networks, and end-user systems. Ranges from SMB generalist to enterprise-level specialist with specific platform expertise.
Application development across web, backend, and full-stack roles. We focus on permanent placements, not contract staffing or staff aug.
Design, configuration, and management of LAN/WAN infrastructure. CCNA, CCNP, or equivalent certifications are common at the mid-level.
Turning operational data into decisions. Tools vary widely by client, but SQL, Excel, and at least one BI platform (Power BI, Tableau) are standard asks.
Technical leadership for in-house IT teams. Usually a blend of hands-on background and experience managing vendors, budgets, and internal stakeholders.
Security monitoring, incident response, and compliance. Demand has increased significantly and qualified candidates are genuinely hard to find at every level.
Operations roles are often the hardest to fill well because the requirements are broad and the impact of a bad hire is felt everywhere. We've placed ops professionals across manufacturing, distribution, logistics, and professional services. The common thread is people who know how to make things run more efficiently than they found them.
Discuss a RoleDay-to-day oversight of production, logistics, or service delivery. Usually owns KPIs, team management, and process improvement simultaneously.
Full P&L and operational responsibility for a manufacturing or production facility. Requires hands-on technical credibility alongside leadership experience.
Procurement, vendor management, inventory control, and logistics coordination. Experience with ERP systems is standard in most searches at this level.
Leadership of distribution center or warehouse operations. Includes staffing, layout optimization, safety compliance, and productivity targets.
Quality systems, audits, and continuous improvement programs. ISO and Six Sigma backgrounds are common in manufacturing and industrial clients.
Senior leadership overseeing all operational functions. Typically a strategic role with board or ownership-level reporting. Often confidential.
