Founded in 2018 by Daniel Lewis, SEDR Recruitment is built on more than 15 years of experience in specialist civil engineering recruitment.
We support contractors across the UK who deliver complex infrastructure and brownfield regeneration, supplying operational, engineering and commercial professionals who make delivery possible.
Our goal is simple. Understand the work, know the people and deliver results that last.
Over the past decade and a half, we have worked with contractors on some of the UK’s most challenging projects across Earthworks, Remediation and Heavy Civils.
Our relationships span from regional specialists to Tier 1 infrastructure partners, built on a reputation for trust, reliability and performance.
We understand the demands of live sites, the importance of experience on the ground and the difference the right people make to programme and safety.
SEDR operates through dedicated verticals that reflect how the industry delivers work.
Each focuses on three clear disciplines: Operations, Engineering and Commercial.
Every role is filled through targeted headhunting and direct engagement. We do not rely on job boards or mass CV send-outs.
Every client and candidate works directly with Daniel Lewis to ensure quality, consistency and transparency from start to finish.
We also embrace innovation. Our technology and CRM systems allow us to work faster and smarter without ever losing the personal connection that defines our service.
Integrity: We do what we say we will do.
Specialism: We focus only on Early Works and Heavy Civils, not general construction.
Ownership: Every assignment is handled personally, from first brief to placement.
Progress: We use technology to enhance delivery, not replace relationships.
These values guide every conversation, every placement and every partnership.
