Learn About Our History

Decades of experience

At GL Recruitment Group, we’re more than a recruitment agency — we’re a trusted partner to the construction industry, built on a foundation of real on-site experience and long-standing industry relationships.

Founded by experienced trade professionals who’ve worked their way up from the tools to senior management positions, GL Recruitment Group was born out of a clear gap in the market: a need for a recruitment agency that actually understands what happens on site — the pressures, the pace, and the people required to get the job done.
