She is 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, she is able to talk the talk—building trust, confidence, and lasting relationships with both clients and candidates.
Construction & Property Recruitment Practice
Magda has worked with many of the leading Construction organizations on a national level, while at the same time managing searches for small boutique firms. She understands the competitive landscape and knows exactly where to find top-tier talent. Her approach is rooted in exhaustive research and thoughtful, strategic questioning—ensuring a complete understanding of both the hiring need and the ideal candidate profile.
