Q1: What does GEDON™ do to help me find the right role?
A: GEDON™ takes an inch-wide, mile-deep approach to recruitment. We operate in a narrow set of disciplines — quantity surveying, preconstruction professionals and commercial leaders — and go deep: mapping your capability to real project needs, commercial risk profiles, delivery models, and team structures. We assess your technical strengths (sector exposure, contract/admin pathways, estimating methodologies, cost planning depth, procurement and post-contract capability) and align them to roles where you’ll add immediate value and have a clear runway to grow.
Q2: How does GEDON™ map out the best course for my career?
A: We don’t treat your move as a single placement — we treat it as a career strategy. That means clarifying what level you should be operating at, validating the job title against the true scope, and identifying the type of environment that will accelerate your development (Tier 1 vs Tier 2, consultancy vs contractor, client-facing vs delivery-heavy, major programs vs specialist projects). We also look at timing against market cycles, your remuneration trajectory, and the roles that position you for the next step — not just the one in front of you.
Q3: How does GEDON™ use its global network to create more options for me?
A: Because GEDON™ has built entrenched relationships globally within our chosen disciplines, we can access roles before they hit the market — and many that never get advertised. Our network spans Australia, the UK/Europe, and key international hubs, allowing us to strategically open doors across regions. We regularly support candidates relocating within Australia, moving to Australia from the UK/Europe or APAC, and professionals moving back into the European market after working in places like Asia, the US, or Australia. The result: you’re competing in a smaller, higher-quality talent pool with access to opportunities others won’t even see.
Q4: How does GEDON™ keep me connected to the market and technically relevant?
A: GEDON™ is embedded in the industry week-to-week, not just when someone’s hiring. We host Estimators & Entertainment, one of the world’s largest estimating-focused networking events — giving you direct access to decision-makers, market intel, and peer benchmarking. We also run The Take Off Podcast, engaging weekly with leaders across cost, commercial, and preconstruction to unpack trends, project pipelines, hiring movements, and sector shifts. That constant engagement means we can advise you with real-time market clarity and position you ahead of the curve.
Q5: Why work with GEDON™ over another agency?
A: GEDON™ is not a broad-brush recruiter — we’re a sector specialist with depth. Our inch-wide, mile-deep model means we know the players, the projects, the commercial pressures, and what “high performance” actually looks like in your space. That lets us represent you credibly, market you with technical accuracy, and connect you to off-market roles where fit and timing matter more than job ads. In short: better opportunities, stronger positioning, and a clear edge over candidates working through generalist agencies.
