Contract & Project-Based
Many civil engineering projects require specialist input for defined phases such as design support, enabling works, major packages or handover stages.
We support project-based civil engineering recruitment by supplying engineers aligned to your scope, discipline and programme duration.
Connecting civil engineering talent with employers across the country.
Civil engineering projects demand precision, compliance and experienced technical leadership at every stage. Our civil engineering recruitment services are built to support both employers delivering complex projects and engineers looking for well-structured, professionally run roles.
For employers
Successful civil engineering delivery relies on having the right engineers in place at the right time.
We work closely with contractors, consultancies and delivery teams to understand project scope, technical requirements and programme risk. This allows us to supply civil engineers who can integrate quickly, follow established processes and contribute effectively from day one, reducing onboarding time and protecting delivery schedules.
For candidates
Civil engineering roles vary significantly by sector, project type and delivery environment. Finding the right opportunity requires more than matching a job title to a CV.

By matching opportunities based on qualifications, project experience and preferred working arrangements, we’re able to give you access to roles where your skills are used properly and your contribution is valued.
We make civil engineering recruitment simple, transparent, and fully compliant.
All civil engineers we supply are employed directly through our PAYE system with no umbrella companies or hidden deductions.

Business Manager
"We started using Blackpoint Recruitment during the pandemic and found them to be very helpful and professional. At a time when other companies were not even responding to our calls due to demand, Blackpoint kept us in the loop of the current recruitment market and was able to supply good quality staff. My main reasons to continually work with Blackpoint was not just to find staff to put in positions but to work with us and understand our business so the staff put forward were right for the job. Blackpoint is currently our main supplier for staff on a temp to perm for the above reason. We have a fantastic working relationship between us and very happy to continually work with them. Would recommend it to any business looking for staff on either a temp or temp to perm basis."

I have had a close working relationship with the company for four years with regards to recruiting several positions within Wren Kitchens. The team have been able to successful recruit temp to perm positions such as HGV Cat C, Cat C1 and Drivers Mates over these 4 years and continue to do so. They have sent us great office-based candidates for two of our Southern based depots which remain with us now. Black Point Recruitment have been able to supply us with last minute van drivers within hours of request, with all teams fulfilling the role to a high standard and representing our company well. I highly recommend the services of Black Point Recruitment."

Mark Martin
Candidate
"I haven't had much success with agencies in the past. Mainly false promises & sheer nonsense has been the only thing my timesheets have seen. I sent my CV off to them & they responded the same afternoon by phone & had an interview date set up for me by the end of the same day. I strongly recommend them!
Lee Conibear
