Per-MW pricing, regional variance, and cost drivers for owners scoping hyperscale & AI builds.
Salary benchmarks across the 14 mission-critical disciplines.
Four engagement models built specifically for mission-critical construction — RPO, embedded recruiting, executive search, and per-role recruiting support. Sector-fluent across eight sectors, US + EMEA.
Each iRecruit.co solution is scoped to a specific hiring problem. Use them individually or combine them into a hybrid engagement under a single account team.
Full or partial outsourcing of your construction recruiting function. Multi-recruiter capacity, program scope, monthly retainer. Built for sustained mission-critical hiring across the portfolio.
A dedicated, sector-fluent recruiter integrated with your hiring team. Runs your ATS, calibrates to your culture, owns a defined portfolio of 5–25 mission-critical hires.
Retained, confidential executive search for senior construction leadership — CEO, COO, CFO, VPs, Project Executives, Chief Estimators, Directors, and Board roles. Discreet, sector-fluent, structured.
Per-role recruiting for specific, time-bound construction hires — without standing up a sustained engagement. Defined scope, defined fee, defined timeline. Single firm, accountable.
The right solution depends on hiring volume, role seniority, confidentiality requirements, and how deeply you want the recruiting team integrated with your hiring function. A quick decision frame:
Four short scenarios. Pick the one that sounds like yours.
You can name the role(s), the timeline is clear, and you don’t need a sustained engagement — just qualified candidates fast.
You have ongoing construction hiring over 3–12 months and want a dedicated partner integrated with your team — a monthly volume-based fee plus a success fee on placement.
You need multi-recruiter capacity for sustained mission-critical hiring at program scale — with sourcing, coordination, and reporting infrastructure run by iRecruit.co.
The role is C-Suite, VP, Project Executive, Director, or Board — and the search needs to be handled discreetly with structured market mapping and reference verification.
All four solutions across the dimensions that matter for construction recruiting decisions — engagement scope, pricing, integration, timeline, and accountability.
Many construction firms structure a hybrid engagement — combining executive search for senior leadership with embedded recruiting or RPO for the sustained portfolio. iRecruit.co coordinates hybrid engagements under a single account team with consistent reporting and aligned candidate evaluation.
Talk through your hiring profile with a recruiting advisor and we’ll point you to the right engagement — RPO, embedded, executive search, or per-role support.
iRecruit.co operates exclusively in mission-critical construction. The clients we serve build the infrastructure the modern economy runs on:
Owner-developers building hyperscale data centers, hospital towers, biomanufacturing facilities, semiconductor fabs, nuclear and SMR reactors, renewable energy generation, energy storage, large-scale commercial development, and complex commercial fit-outs.
General contractors and construction managers delivering mission-critical builds where schedule, quality, and safety performance directly affect client trust, future awards, and team retention.
EPC firms and design-builders running integrated engineering, procurement, and construction programs in regulated sectors — FDA cGMP, NFPA 70E, FGI/ICRA, SEMI, NQA-1, federal procurement, hyperscale Cx.
Owner’s Representative firms, advisory consultancies, and PMO organizations recruiting senior leadership and delivery talent for owner-side program execution and governance.
Specialty trades, MEP contractors, and commissioning firms building delivery teams for mission-critical sectors where technical credentialing (NETA, NICET, EOR licensure, Cx certifications) drives candidate selection.

iRecruit.co operates exclusively in mission-critical construction. Three reasons clients work with us across all four solutions:
iRecruit.co works exclusively in mission-critical construction. Our network density, framework fluency, and candidate evaluation criteria are calibrated for data center, healthcare, life sciences, semiconductor, nuclear, renewable, and commercial — not spread thinly across every industry.
Whether per-role, embedded, RPO, or executive search — iRecruit.co operates as the firm of record. We do not flood your inbox alongside other recruiters or run searches with diluted ownership. The team you sign with is the team accountable for the outcome.
Most construction firms eventually need more than one model. iRecruit.co coordinates RPO, embedded recruiting, executive search, and per-role recruiting under a single account team — with consistent reporting, aligned evaluation criteria, and no handoff seams between solutions.
iRecruit.co offers four construction recruiting engagement models: RPO recruiting (full or partial recruiting function outsourced), embedded recruiting support (dedicated talent partner for a defined portfolio), executive search (confidential retained search for senior leadership), and per-role recruiting support (specific construction hires without a sustained engagement). All four operate exclusively in mission-critical construction across 8 sectors.
Use the decision framework above. If you have one or two specific hires, choose recruiting support. If you have a defined portfolio of 5–25 reqs and want sustained capacity, choose embedded recruiting. If you’re outsourcing a full or partial recruiting function, choose RPO. If you’re hiring a senior leader confidentially, choose executive search. If you’re uncertain, schedule a 30-minute conversation and we’ll help you scope the right model.
Yes. Many construction firms structure hybrid engagements — pairing executive search for senior leadership with embedded recruiting or RPO for the sustained portfolio. iRecruit.co coordinates hybrid engagements under a single account team with consistent reporting and aligned candidate evaluation.
