Your CV lists duties, not the projects you delivered
You've delivered projects on time and under budget, led site teams safely and managed multi-million dollar contracts - but your CV describes what you did rather than the outcomes you delivered.
You're moving from site delivery into project or commercial management
Stepping up from site supervision or contract administration into project, construction or commercial management - and your CV needs to position the full breadth of your capability, not just your site background.
You're moving builder-side to client-side, or between sectors
Moving from builder to client-side or developer, or between residential, commercial and civil construction - and your CV needs to reposition your experience for a different audience and sector.
We specialise in construction hiring.
Construction hiring is driven by delivery, not duties. Projects completed on programme and budget, safety records, variations managed and contracts delivered - our specialists position that track record for the roles that value it most.
Project delivery and commercial outcomes positioned precisely
Project value, programme and budget performance, variations and safety record (LTIFR) - we translate your delivery track record into the language construction hiring managers look for.
ATS-optimised for construction roles
Tier-one builders, developers, government and subcontractors all screen construction roles for specific keywords, from Site Safe and LBP licensing to project values. We write your CV to pass that automated screening.
Sector-specific language across every area
Residential, commercial, civil, fit-out and infrastructure construction all have distinct vocabularies. Our specialists write in the language of your sector.
Matched with a construction specialist
Site, project, contracts, estimating and commercial roles all require different positioning. We match you with the specialist for your area.

Frequently asked questions.
Do your CV writers have experience in construction?
Yes. Since 2011 we've grown our team to 65 specialist CV writers working across 72+ industries, and we've written more than 60,000 CVs for over 920 professions. We match you with the construction specialist with the most relevant experience for your role.
How long does it take?
Your first draft is delivered within 3 business days of your consultation call, which is usually scheduled for the next business day after you book. Express 1 and 2 business day turnarounds are also available.
Who will be working on my CV, and how do we communicate?
A consultant who specialises in the New Zealand job market works with you from start to finish. It starts with a one-to-one consultation by phone or Zoom, typically around an hour. After that you can reach your consultant by phone, Zoom or online chat in your account.
Will my CV get past applicant tracking systems (ATS)?
Yes. Most employers and job boards use ATS software to filter applications, and most applications are filtered by these systems before a recruiter sees them. Every CV we write is ATS-optimised with the keywords and formatting your target roles are screened for.
Can I request revisions?
Yes. Revisions are unlimited. Your consultant delivers requested changes by 5pm the following business day, and we keep going until your CV is exactly right.

CV People construction specialist vs generic and AI CV services.
Construction CVs live and die on delivery outcomes. Project value, programme and budget performance, safety metrics and variations need to be framed precisely - that takes a specialist, not a generic writer or AI tool.
