Hays Recruitment - Recruitment Consultant – Estates & Property Management (Construction & Property Temp)
Location: Bristol
Specialism: Estates & Property Management – Temporary Recruitment
Sector: Construction & Property (Non‑Housing)
About the Role:
We’re looking to appoint a Recruitment Consultant to support the expansion of a non-housing Estates & Property Management temporary desk within our Construction & Property business in Bristol.
This role is part of a strategic desk expansion, carving out a dedicated focus on estates-led, white-collar roles across the public sector. The desk already generates revenue without formal focus and mirrors a highly successful Southampton operation, providing a proven blueprint for growth.
What You’ll Be Doing:

* Working on senior, white-collar roles including: Asset Managers, Property Managers, Estates Managers, Building Surveyors, Project Managers (including damp & mould–focused programmes) Asbestos and compliance-led specialists
* Partnering with organisations across: NHS estates, Higher Education, Central Government and large public estates
* Leveraging existing live roles and client relationships across Hays
* Collaborating closely with the Surveying team across the South
* Building long-term, specialist market credibility rather than servicing ad-hoc demand
The Opportunity:
* High-margin, senior white-collar vacancies aligned to the 5-lever plan
* Strong legislative tailwinds driving estates and compliance investment
What We’re Looking For:
* Recruitment experience preferred, but entry-level candidates with the right drive will be considered
* Interest in estates, property, surveying or public-sector infrastructure
* Ability to build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders
* Commercial mindset and appetite to own a specialist market
* Motivation to develop a desk with long-term scale rather than short-term transactions
