Whitelake Recruitment is a specialist trades and labour recruitment agency delivering short-term trade solutions with long-term strategies in mind.
We work with Site Managers and trade and labour operatives to fill immediate and long-term assignments. We have a transparent and approachable style and are known as the agency to provide a service that continues to deliver. We focus our vision on keeping it that way. By setting out to understand a client’s requirements, we can deliver to their needs time and time again. We use this understanding to introduce and guide trades and labour operatives quickly and seamlessly into jobs that best suit their skill sets and personal circumstances. Building lasting relationships in this way, clients trust us to source the most appropriate operatives to fill assignments, and operatives trust us with their careers.
Working across a wide range of sectors, including electrical, carpentry, groundworks, and more, we currently have active sites across London, including Central, North and South regions, with further client partnerships throughout the UK. We have over 1000 skilled and fully vetted operatives on our database, all over the UK and that is ever-growing and covers over 80 different trade and labour specialisms.
Before an operative goes out on site, a thorough vetting process is carried out including qualification checks, multiple reference checks per operative, CSCS card checks, document verification, identity verification and right-to-work checks. This ensures all operatives are paid legally, fairly, accurately and on time, according to government legislation.
We are dedicated to delivering trade and labour recruitment solutions fast and seamlessly for our clients. To help with this, we have introduced an online portal to speed up and simplify the time-reporting aspect of each assignment. This can be accessed on a desktop or mobile device and allows its user to simultaneously submit and approve timesheets for multiple operatives at once.
