Property and Surveying Recruitment
Marks Consulting Partners is a specialist property and surveying recruitment consultancy based in Bushey, Hertfordshire. Since 2015 we have recruited technical and professional staff for housing associations, local authorities and private property and building consultancies, on both interim and permanent terms.
Who we recruit for
We only recruit into property. That focus is the reason clients come to us: we know the difference between a responsive repairs surveyor and a disrepair surveyor, or between an asset manager in social housing and one in commercial property, and we brief candidates accordingly.
- Housing associations: property, asset management, repairs and housing teams.
- Local authorities: interim and permanent roles, directly or through the managed service providers they use.
- Building surveying and property consultancies: including SME practices hiring chartered surveyors.
- Developers and the wider private property market: development, regeneration and project roles.
Roles we place
- Building surveyors: fire risk (FRA), damp and mould, repairs and maintenance, project and disrepair surveyors, and repairs managers.
- Quantity surveyors, estates surveyors, valuation surveyors and general practice surveyors.
- Asset managers, project managers and clerks of works.
- Building safety and compliance roles.
- Housing officers and managers, and income officers and managers.
- Heads of department and directors across property, estates, housing, repairs and asset management.
Interim and permanent
Our interim team supplies specialists who can start quickly, from a single surveyor covering a leaver to a group of stock condition surveyors starting on the same day. Our permanent team recruits chartered surveyors (MRICS and CIOB), managers and senior appointments, including a large share of director and head of department roles.
How we work
We take the time to understand the brief: the specialism, the stock or portfolio, the team and the decision-maker. Then we put forward a small number of people who genuinely fit, rather than a pile of loosely matched CVs. Clients tell us that is what makes the difference, and one told us we “get it right first time”.
Once someone starts, we stay in touch with both sides. Many of our candidates come back to us throughout their careers.
Where we work
London, the South East, the East of England, the Midlands, the North of England, Scotland and Wales. We also take national briefs from our office in Bushey.
