Meet Our Recruitment Consultant Josh Kirk

 

This week we want to introduce you to one of our Recruitment Consultants Josh Kirk.
Josh has worked for Flagship for 3.5 years now. He is currently heading up the recruitment in London. We asked Josh some questions about Flagship and the market in general. This is what Josh had to say.

 

Tell us a bit about yourself and your role at Flagship?

I have been working at Flagship for the last 3.5 years. During that time I have worked with many clients but currently, my role is heading up the recruitment in and around London for a number of construction consultancies.

What roles do you recruit for and with what sort of clients?

I recruit mainly Quantity Surveyors and Project Managers for a number of consultancies; from large, international, multi-disciplinary consultancies to small independents and everything in between!

What is your view on the market at the moment?

The construction sector at the moment is incredibly busy which is a really positive sign. I currently have a number of QS and PM roles from Graduates to Directors for a variety of clients.

What advice would you give a jobseeker looking for work?

The main advice I would give is to be enthusiastic, resilient, and to keep an open mind and be careful not to pigeon hole yourself. Some of the most successful candidates are ones which keep their options open.

What makes Flagship stand out in a crowded industry such as recruitment?

The main thing which makes Flagship stick out in the market is our enthusiasm, dedication and love for the work we do – placing top quality candidates with top quality clients! We have many incredible reviews both on Google and LinkedIn for a reason!

What do you get up to outside of work?

Outside of work I play the guitar, enjoy cycling, running, keeping relatively fit! And of course, seeing my friends.
