About Certified Staff

Why we exist

Carded and certified work cannot afford a CV mismatch. A site that needs a CSCS-carded supervisor on Monday cannot wait until Wednesday to find out the candidate's card expired six months ago. Certified Staff was set up to remove that uncertainty: every card and certificate verified before the CV reaches your desk.

What we do, plainly

Permanent placements for UK construction, industrial and technical employers. CSCS-carded operatives, IPAF MEWP operators, FLT drivers, CCNSG-passport industrial workers, NEBOSH safety officers, OFTEC and Gas-Safe heating engineers, NICEIC electricians, City & Guilds tradespeople, CPCS plant operators.

How we verify

Right-to-work verification on every candidate
Card / certificate checked against the issuing body's register where one exists (CSCS, IPAF, NICEIC, Gas-Safe)
Certificate copies held on file where no online register exists
Reference contact, current and previous employer where possible
DBS coordinated where the role calls for it

Who we work for

UK construction firms, civil-engineering contractors, mid-market industrial businesses, building-services contractors, FM and maintenance providers, and end-clients across petrochem, power and infrastructure.

Our values, the short version

Verify the credential. A card-verified candidate is the only kind we send.
Tell the truth. If the salary or rate is below market for that ticket, we say so.
One consultant per client. One consultant takes the brief, vets candidates, runs the offer, follows up.
Stand behind the work. Free replacement period on every permanent placement.
