How the desk runs

One platform, from the vacancy to the placement fee.

  • Take the vacancy properly

    The site, the role detail, the salary and the fee agreement sit on one job record — whether it is one of the site engineers, setting-out engineers and site agents or a role further up.

  • Source from your own database first

    Schemes run in phases, so the engineers who finished the last phase are usually available for the next one. Plain-English search and CV parsing run across everything you already hold, with AI match scoring surfacing who is worth a call.

  • A shortlist the client can read

    Send a formatted shortlist from the record. What matters to the site is whether the engineer turns up ticketed and inducted, so the submission leads with that rather than a CV dump.

  • Interviews without the diary tennis

    Arrange, confirm and reschedule from the job, with reminders going to both sides and the outcome recorded against the candidate.

  • Offer, acceptance and the fee

    Offer, counter-offer and acceptance are tracked on the placement with the fee, the start date and the rebate period attached.

  • Pipeline against target

    Dashman shows fill-rate by scheme, contractor margin and the disciplines you are short of, by consultant and by stage.

Checks and clearances

Cleared for site before the booking is committed

Cards, inductions and sign-offs are held against the worker with expiry alerts, so the desk can see who is genuinely site-ready rather than who is merely free.

How documents and expiry work
  • CSCS cards with expiry alerts
  • Professional qualifications on the worker record
  • Site safety inductions recorded against the placement
  • Right-to-work documents with expiry alerts

Questions

Permanent Civil Engineering recruitment software questions.

Can it handle the whole civil engineering perm process?

Vacancy, sourcing, shortlist, interviews, offer and placement fee all sit on one job record, so nothing is tracked in a separate spreadsheet or inbox.

How are placement fees and rebates tracked?

The fee, the start date and the rebate period sit on the placement, so what is invoiced and what is still at risk is visible without reconstructing it.

Does it help with candidate sourcing?

Plain-English search runs across your existing database, duplicates are flagged before a new record goes in, and AI match scoring surfaces the engineers worth calling first.

Can we see pipeline against target?

Dashman shows pipeline, placements and fees against target by consultant, client and stage, in one live view rather than a monthly spreadsheet.

What checks do civil engineering placements need?

Cards, inductions and sign-offs are held against the worker with expiry alerts, so the desk can see who is genuinely site-ready rather than who is merely free. The desk holds CSCS cards with expiry alerts, professional qualifications on the worker record, site safety inductions recorded against the placement, right-to-work documents with expiry alerts.
