Recruitment firm Populus Select and Wade Construction Management Consultants have formed a strategic partnership to enhance specialist construction projects worldwide.

The two Tees Valley-based businesses had been working collaboratively for some time before formalising the relationship, which sees them working together to place experts in projects within the UK and overseas.

The venture aims to place highly skilled professionals in key locations - including Europe, Canada, Singapore and Pakistan - with an emphasis on supporting the growing international pharmaceutical sector, where both firms have a wealth of knowledge.
