Client Feedback

Infrastructure People’s approach and system definitely works well and is a good fit with what we need in our business. What they have done for us to date has been fantastic; they offer a great and unique service, and we look forward to our continued partnership.
Through their extensive industry knowledge, Infrastructure People have carefully selected applicants who perfectly fit not just the role, but also the culture.
It is rare to find a company offering recruitment services, who have your business’ best interests at heart and not all about making fees. We have found the Infrastructure People team to be very knowledgeable, honest and personally interested in matching us with the right candidates.
We engaged Infrastructure People to deliver a package of recruitment initially over a 12 week period which, due to their high delivery performance, has since been extended. At all times the team have gone above and beyond to ensure candidates of the highest levels are identified and presented to our business. In so doing, the team have also been able to compile considerable data on roles specific to our business as well as develop a pipeline of potential future candidates.

Not unlike many contractors in 2022, Ultegra experience an unprecedented level of turn over across all blue collar and white collar roles, creating a massive challenge for the business. We realised we needed a different approach to the usual contingency recruitment model and turned to Infrastructure People. By engaging Infrastructure People we were able to cost effectively consolidate our recruitment efforts into one partner. With the breadth of their recruitment efforts/reach, we were able to fill many roles covering project management, admin and civil/electrical trades roles, delivering a record level of recruitment into the business and ensuring services and projects were delivered to our customers satisfaction.

Stuart and Harriet have been a breath of fresh air to assist with our ongoing recruiting needs. The lengths they have gone to be able to understand and immerse themselves in our business and the way it is conducted has been amazing to watch.

Our experience with IP has been nothing but positive, we partnered with a professional who understood our needs and was able to pivot with the ever-changing landscape of a major project. Nadiah commenced with us on an initial short-term placement to fill a gap for us when we had immediate resourcing needs. However, her commitment to the role on SPARK and the way she supported her senior stakeholders, quickly saw her become a critical and vital part of our team. In the year that Nadiah was with us, due to her understanding of the industry and her professionalism; she was able to place over 100 people in on-going roles on SPARK.

The service was great, easy to work with, and fit in seamlessly with our requirements. I would recommend Nadiah and by extension, IRP, to others in the industry.

Alstom has partnered with Infrastructure People for over 18 months, in particular David Turnbull, who has worked alongside and been a part of our own internal talent acquisition team. David has played a critical role in our ability to quickly ramp up during a critical phase in our business, to build strong teams of high calibre people and source scarce critical competencies.

Their business model and way of working fits with our business, they are extremely responsive, they understand our business and we look forward to continuing the partnership in the future.

Working with the team has been a real eye opener for us in terms of how much we can save as a business through partnering with Infrastructure People and I would highly recommend them to both candidates and clients in the construction and infrastructure industry.”
