About Us


Specialists in Property and Construction Recruitment

Established in 1991, Selection and Search Associates is a specialist recruitment and selection consultancy working principally within the industry areas of property, construction and the associated sectors. The Directors, Nigel Beaumont and Jim Rusch, have both worked in full time recruitment consultancy since 1980 and prior to this with leading plc groups in these industry sectors.

Over many years, we have earned a reputation for integrity and professionalism within our areas of specialisation and adhere to a strict code of ethics. Rather than being “all things to all men”, we work extensively with a comparatively small number of client organisations on a long-term basis.

Confidentiality and discretion, both from our clients and candidates point of view, are of paramount importance. We see our role both as advisor and facilitator participating fully in the recruitment and decision making process.

The majority of the assignments that we undertake are at senior management and director level, primarily in the UK and Europe. Within our industry sectors, our clients include:
