Hard Hat is a specialist construction recruitment agency supplying project managers to construction sites across Reading & Berkshire. We work exclusively in construction — no white-collar generalism, no admin temps — so when you register with us you go on the books of recruiters who actually understand the trade.
Project managers lead the planning, coordination, and delivery of construction projects from inception to completion. They manage budgets, programmes, client relationships, and project teams. Hard Hat places experienced project managers with Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors, developers, and consultancies. Our candidates have strong commercial awareness, leadership skills, and a track record of delivering projects on time and within budget across sectors including residential, commercial, mixed-use, and infrastructure.
Reading is one of the Thames Valley's most active construction markets, with major commercial office developments, residential schemes, and infrastructure projects driven by its excellent transport links and proximity to London. Hard Hat supplies construction workforce to contractors across Reading, Woodley, Caversham, and the wider M4 corridor. We provide operatives for commercial fit-outs, residential new builds, data centre construction, and infrastructure schemes.
Whether you are looking for your next project manager job in Reading, want a contractor to swap into a better-paying site, or you are a main contractor needing reliable project manager supply, we mobilise quickly. We supply to Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors on residential, commercial, fit-out, civils and infrastructure projects.
