Construction Recruitment in Leicestershire

Leicestershire sits at the heart of the UK’s logistics network, with the East Midlands Gateway, big factories and fast-growing housing around Leicester. Bernoullis delivers construction recruitment in Leicestershire and Rutland for logistics developers, industrial builders and housebuilders, checking every card first.
Logistics and Housing Drive Construction Recruitment in Leicestershire
The M1, M69 and A42 make the county a natural home for warehouses and distribution parks. The 700-acre East Midlands Gateway, Magna Park near Lutterworth and sites around Hinckley need groundworkers, steel erectors, cladders and site managers who know big-shed builds.
Leicester itself has regeneration, university buildings and housing, while Rutland and Melton bring smaller rural jobs. Construction recruitment in Leicestershire has to cover all of these, from 24-hour logistics programmes to careful village extensions.
- Warehouses and rail freight at East Midlands Gateway
- Factory upgrades in Leicester and Hinckley
