Construction, trades and facilities recruitment for people who keep work moving.

The Partnership Group is a specialist recruitment agency for commercial construction, data centres, subcontract trades, HVAC, electrical and facilities management, led personally by Co-Founder Chris Tipper. We place the people who keep projects, sites and assets moving: project managers, site managers, supervisors, estimators, contract administrators, electricians, HVAC technicians, carpenters, joiners, shopfitters, commissioning support and facilities specialists.

Australia's construction and infrastructure workforce remains under pressure. Jobs and Skills Australia has identified Construction Trades Workers as being in national shortage, while Infrastructure Australia reports a $242 billion Major Public Infrastructure Pipeline across FY2024-25 to FY2028-29. This pressure pulls skilled people across commercial, industrial, infrastructure, facilities and subcontractor markets.

The shortage is not only a shortage of people. It is a shortage of suitable, qualified and available people who can work in the right environment. A strong electrician, HVAC technician, site manager or facilities leader may still be wrong for a role if the project environment, compliance requirements, travel, site expectations or leadership style do not fit.
