About Us

Ridgeway & Co was launched with one clear vision - to build long term partnerships with both clients and candidates as we support them in their progression to success. We achieve this through a consultative, collaborative approach, prioritising transparency and embracing a solution-oriented ethos at all times.

Why we do this

We are challenging the stigma surrounding candidates being registered with multiple agencies by creating a unique environment that combines the perks of freelancing with the family atmosphere of direct employment. Our vision is to cultivate a sense of community for candidates while delivering an unparalleled level of service to our clients.

How we will do this

We take the time to understand every client and candidate's potential requirement before offering a tailor-made solution. We will discuss all short and long term needs within the construction market whilst always ensuring the candidate’s best interests are at the heart of everything we do. By doing this, and incorporating our market leading benefits we will attract the best talent in the industry and aid our expanding client base in their continued growth.
