Construction

In Construction, the right people help organizations build safely, efficiently, profitably, and with confidence — from project coordination and site supervision to senior leadership, operations, estimating, engineering, and business development.

Our Construction specialty practice supports organizations across a diverse and demanding industry where experience, judgement, safety, technical knowledge, communication, and execution all matter. From entry-level roles to senior management, we help employers identify professionals who can contribute meaningfully to project success, operational performance, and long-term growth.

Stoakley-Stewart Consultants brings decades of recruitment experience, deep market knowledge, and a relationship-driven approach to Construction talent acquisition. Our consultants understand that the best hiring outcomes require more than matching a resume to a job description — they require careful assessment of technical fit, leadership style, communication, accountability, culture, and long-term potential.

Our Construction specialty practice is led by Magda Salem, Stoakley-Stewart’s Construction Division Manager. Minus the hard hat and steel-toed boots, she is a true industry expert.

Working with General Contractors, Trades, Owners, Engineers, Architects, Consulting firms, Developers, and Landlords, Magda is able to talk the talk — building trust, confidence, credibility, and stronger relationships with both clients and candidates.

Working closely with Magda, Valerie Yuricek brings deep experience across Property and Facilities Management, a natural extension of many Construction-related hiring needs.

Together, Magda and Valerie form a highly effective and collaborative team, delivering comprehensive recruitment solutions across Construction, Property, Facilities, and related disciplines — combining sector knowledge, market reach, shared expertise, and a strong commitment to finding the right fit for both clients and candidates.

Construction hiring requires practical industry understanding. Employers need people who can manage timelines, control costs, coordinate stakeholders, interpret drawings, communicate with trades, support safety expectations, solve problems in real time, and keep projects moving under pressure.

Our expert Construction Division Managers specialize in the placement of staff at all levels from entry level to senior management within the industry. Their in-depth knowledge of the industry allows them to source candidates that match the unique and specific criteria of our clients.

Strong Construction professionals are often fully engaged in current projects and not actively applying to job postings. The best candidates may be leading sites, managing clients, estimating complex work, directing teams, or contributing to organizations that value their experience and do not want to lose them.

Our relationship-driven search approach helps employers reach beyond the visible applicant market. We engage candidates thoughtfully, understand the demands of the role, and help clients connect with talent whose experience, communication style, and long-term goals align with the opportunity.

Stoakley-Stewart Consultants prides itself on working on behalf of both client and candidate and ensuring the right fit for both parties. In Construction, this means understanding the technical demands of each role, the pace and pressure of project environments, the importance of communication, and the cultural realities of each employer.

If you’re looking for a high degree of ethics, professionalism, and effectiveness, our Construction recruitment practice offers the experience, specialization, and market access needed to support confident hiring decisions.
