Vertical Recruitment has appointed Managing Consultant, Danny Craigie, to lead on Construction recruitment.

Danny has over 18 years’ experience in recruitment and is a Fellow of the Institution of Recruitment Professionals. His career began as a labour controller and manager on major construction sites across the North West, including the Trafford Centre development, where he was based on site during construction.

He has since enjoyed a varied career, working internationally where he recruited Oil and Gas engineers for some of the world’s largest energy suppliers and becoming the preferred labour supplier to a major supermarkets M&E contracting partner, amongst others.
