A Better Alternative to the Big Agencies
The large agencies have scale. We have the trades. Here's why hiring managers switch to JP CREW.
We've Done the Work
Our consultants come from the trades and construction floor — we speak your language and know a good sparky from a great one. Big agencies send generic recruiters; we send people who understand the job.
4-Hour Response, Not 4 Days
Urgent roles get urgent attention. We average a 4-hour first-response time because we already know who's available — you're not starting from a blank database.
Quality Over Volume
We won't flood your inbox with CVs. We send a shortlist of candidates we'd put on our own sites — fully screened, reference-checked and ticket-verified.
A Direct Line to the Founder
No account managers cycling every six months. You work with the same consultant who knows your business, and Jon is personally reachable on every placement.
A Simple, Transparent Process
No black box, no CV dump. Just a clear path from your brief to a placed, verified professional.
Discovery Call
We start by understanding your business, the role, your culture, and the project demands — not just the job description. You speak directly with a consultant who has worked in the trades.
Targeted Search
We tap our active network of vetted tradespeople, engineers and construction professionals — many of whom we have already placed — so we move fast on candidates others can't reach.
Screen & Verify
Every candidate is screened, reference-checked and licence/ticket verified before they reach you. You only meet people who are genuinely qualified and ready to work.
Place & Support
We support the placement through onboarding and beyond, with a replacement guarantee. If it isn't the right fit, we make it right — no excuses.
Backed by a Replacement Guarantee
We stand behind every placement. If a candidate doesn't work out within the guarantee period, we replace them — at no extra cost. That's how confident we are in the people we send you.
