We’re looking for an experienced Recruitment Account Manager / Resourcing Specialist to join our client’s Infrastructure team, supporting the delivery of skilled temporary workers across some of the UK’s largest, safety-critical construction and infrastructure projects throughout the UK.
This is a fast-paced, delivery-focused role where you’ll be responsible for managing high-volume temporary recruitment campaigns across major infrastructure developments. You’ll play a key role in ensuring projects have the skilled workforce required to keep critical programmes moving forward.
Projects include large-scale infrastructure developments such as nuclear facilities, road construction schemes, airport resurfacing programmes, highways maintenance projects, and other significant civil engineering works.

- Groundworkers
- Traffic Management Operatives
- Skilled Trades
- Plant Operators
- Highways Operatives
- Labourers
- Site Supervisors
- Civil Engineering Personnel
- Other blue-collar and technical infrastructure workers
This is a delivery-focused position rather than a sales role. Your success will come from building talent pipelines, managing candidate relationships, coordinating compliance, and ensuring projects are fully resourced.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Managing temporary workforce requirements across multiple major projects.
- Sourcing, screening and qualifying candidates for infrastructure and construction roles.

- Working closely with clients and hiring managers to understand workforce requirements.
- Maintaining regular contact with contractors and temporary workers.
- Ensuring excellent candidate and client experience throughout the recruitment process
- Utilising recruitment systems and databases to track activity and performance
What We’re Looking For
- Proven recruitment, resourcing or account management experience.
- Experience recruiting within construction, infrastructure, engineering, industrial or blue-collar sectors is highly desirable.
- Strong delivery and account management skills.
- Ability to manage multiple vacancies and fast-moving recruitment campaigns simultaneously.
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
- Highly organised with strong attention to detail.
- Experience working within compliance-led or regulated sectors would be advantageous.
- A proactive, solution-focused approach.
What’s On Offer
- Competitive salary of £35,000 – £40,000 DOE.
- Hybrid working model (2 days in Edinburgh office).
- Comprehensive benefits package.
- Opportunity to work on some of the UK’s most significant infrastructure projects.
- Supportive and collaborative team environment.
- Long-term career progression within a growing specialist division.
- The chance to make a tangible impact on major projects shaping the UK’s future infrastructure.
