Baton rouge construction recruiting and staffing solutions

Advastar builds construction teams in Baton Rouge by connecting owners, general contractors, and specialty subs with people who know how to deliver along the Mississippi River corridor. We support direct hire, contract, contract to hire, and employer of record payrolling so project leaders can staff quickly and scale up or down as schedules shift across East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge, Ascension, and Livingston parishes. Our focus is straightforward. Match proven talent to the work that defines the Capital Region, from petrochemical unit expansions and tank farms to hospital additions, higher education projects, and drainage and roadway improvements that keep the city moving.

Additional construction areas where we recruit

Construction management recruiters

Our construction management recruiters staff the office side of construction delivery: preconstruction and estimating, scheduling and project controls, cost management and document control, for CM-at-risk firms, owner’s representatives and general contractors.

Delivery method matters more than sector in this discipline, so we ask about it on every intake. A scheduler who has only worked lump-sum jobs is a different hire from one who has run an open-book GMP.

Roles we fill

  • Preconstruction managers
  • Estimators and chief estimators
  • Schedulers and planners (P6)
  • Project controls managers
  • Cost engineers and cost analysts
  • Document control and contract administrators
  • QA/QC and commissioning managers
  • Owner-side construction managers

Construction project manager recruiters

Our construction project manager recruiters place assistant project managers through project executives with general contractors, specialty and trade contractors, developers and owners.

Project manager means very different things at different companies, so we qualify on what someone actually carried: contract value, delivery method, buyout authority and whether they owned the margin or reported it.

  • Assistant project managers
  • Project managers
  • Senior project managers
  • Project executives
  • Specialty and trade contractor PMs
  • Owner-side project managers
  • Industrial and heavy civil PMs
  • Traveling project managers

Construction superintendent recruiters

Our construction superintendent recruiters place assistant, project and general superintendents and trade-specific field leaders with general contractors, self-perform builders and owners.

We qualify on what someone has actually run: project size and type, self-perform crews or subcontractors, how many trades were stacked at peak and whether they held the schedule or just reported on it.

Roles we fill

  • Project superintendents
  • General superintendents
  • Assistant superintendents
  • Self-perform and trade superintendents
  • Traveling superintendents
  • Interiors and occupied-space superintendents

  • Safety-focused field leaders

Civil construction recruiters

Our civil construction recruiters work with heavy civil and infrastructure contractors: highway and bridge builders, earthwork and site contractors, underground utility installers, paving companies and the joint ventures assembled for large public programs.

Heavy civil runs on bid openings, public funding and quantities, so we screen for people who tracked and defended pay quantities and know what their own equipment costs per hour.
