Newly launched recruitment portal

Bristol based recruitment company ARV Solutions, has teamed up with the Offsite Hub to support the drive to attract much needed skills and fresh talent to the construction industry.

According to Housing Minister Brandon Lewis:   “The number of new homes being developed is up by 25% in the last year - this is further proof that the country is building again and delivering the homes the nation wants. This means thousands of jobs are now up for grabs and we’re determined to make sure that there are enough skilled workers to get the job done.”

The Construction Leadership Council has been called upon to conduct a review to establish what action is required to close the skills gap currently being experienced by the sector and how to best train a workforce which has a high level of self-employment and bring about greater use of offsite construction methods.

Sponsored by ARV Solutions, the newly launched recruitment portal on the Offsite Hub, has been designed to provide easy access for companies to advertise their current construction vacancies and provide job seekers with a platform to upload and showcase their CVs.

This Offsite Hub recruitment portal has search and filtering capabilities, so candidates can easily browse through relevant jobs and successful apply for them online.

ARV Solutions was established as a specialist recruitment agency in 2003 and Managing Director, Jim Roach said: “Our partnership approach with the Offsite Hub is just one of many initiatives we are implementing across this specialist market sector. Our primary aim is to promote vacancies far and wide in order to find the most suitable candidate for the role. If the whole industry use independent portals like the Offsite Hub it will help towards increasing activity in the sector and assist reducing the skills gap.”
