Connecting housebuilders and regional developers with the talent that delivers homes.
Residential development demands a different breed of professional. The pace of a housebuilding programme, the pressures of land, planning, and sales, and the complexity of delivering at volume — these are not challenges that a generalist recruiter can navigate well.
MapTalent's Residential Developers & Contractors practice has been built specifically for this market. Drawing on our deep roots in the Midlands construction sector and a network assembled over 30 years, we place white collar and blue collar professionals with housebuilders, residential developers and regional building contractors across the West and East Midlands and beyond.
Whether you are scaling up a programme, backfilling a critical site management role, or building out a commercial team, we have the relationships to source the right person — on permanent or contract terms, from site management through to board level.
Our residential client base spans both the volume and bespoke ends of the market:
Residential recruitment has its own vocabulary and its own talent pool. A strong Site Manager from a commercial background may not suit a fast-moving housebuilding programme. Our recruiters understand those distinctions and won't waste your time with mismatched candidates.
We work in close partnership with our clients — understanding the programme, the culture, and the type of person who will thrive in your business. That rigour is how we maintain a 97.3% contract fulfilment rate across our placement portfolio.
"Deep Midlands roots, a network built over 30 years — and recruiters who know your sector inside out."
From development director to site operative — we place residential professionals at every level of the programme.
