Welcome To Big Cat Search

#1 AEC Recruitment Firm

Our mission is twofold:
1) To find the "Big Cats" in the Architecture, Engineering & Construction Industry.
2) To help rescued and abused Big Cats at Valley of the Kings animal sanctuary.

Recruitment  within the Architecture, Engineering and Construction industries is vital, finding the right candidate with the right experience in a timely manner for your project is not o­nly an essential element but o­ne which ultimately reflects o­n your overall performance including perceived operational efficiency, quality and the end financial result.

Big Cat Search is a recruitment firm specializing in the placement of Architecture, Engineering and Construction professionals. By focusing o­n a niche-market, we know how to find high-achieving individuals and  attract them to your company.

Typically, our "build" clients are engaged in the design and/or build of residential, industrial, commercial, and other buildings. Our "heavy" clients are typically engaged in the design and/or build of sewers, roads, highways, bridges, tunnels, and other projects. Our "specialty" clients are typically engaged in carpentry, painting, mechanicals, plumbing, and electrical work.   

We are known by the companies we keep. A sizeable number of companies have used our recruiters to locate and secure the best available talent. For positions in Architecture, Engineering and Construction, you can count o­n us. Our specialization and commitment to these industries gives us the edge over generalists who o­nly dabble in our world.

At Big Cat Search, we refer o­nly those candidates who are sincerely interested in exploring the opportunity to join your team. In other words, we don't waste time by presenting reluctant or counteroffer prone candidates who might use your employment offer merely as a market-value litmus test or a negotiating tool to leverage an existing position. O­nly those candidates with realistic expectations and corporate-culture compatibility will be presented.


Area of Service

Our geographical area of service consists of the entire United States with a concentration in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,Tennessee and Texas. Our clients may have their corporate offices,their projects and division offices anywhere in the US.

Blueprint For Successful Search



As specialists serving the niche-markets of Architecture, Engineering and Construction, we know how to find high-achieving individuals and attract them to your company. Here’s a summary of how we work:

Step o­ne: Research and Recruiting
Before the search begins, we’ll arrange a meeting to discuss your specific needs and to draw
up a profile of the person you wish to hire. To sharpen our understanding of the position, we’ll ask you to fill out a brief questionnaire—we call it a search navigator—designed to prioritize candidate characteristics and identify companies, industries or markets from which a person with exceptional talent might be found.

During the recruiting process, we’ll make progress reports and background presentations when qualified candidates surface. We’ll facilitate interviewing, check references when appropriate, give our input in terms of candidate interest level and suitability, and make recommendations with respect to compensation and relocation issues. In most cases, the first round of referrals and interviews will take approximately three to six days.

Step Two: Generating an Acceptable Offer
Once mutual interest has been established, our capture strategy goes into effect. What are the candidate’s needs, in terms of compensation, perks and relocation assistance? Are there any loose ends that must be addressed? And is the candidate serious about joining your team, or is he juggling a variety of offers—or overtures to stay with the current employer?


As difficult as it is to find the right person, your efforts are wasted if the candidate turns you down or takes another offer. And it’s our job to help broker the deal, to ensure that who you want is who you get.

Step Three: Ensuring a Smooth Transition
Now that your employment offer has been accepted, we’ll do whatever is necessary to help the candidate resign from his or her old position, decline a counteroffer attempt, and assist in any way that might be beneficial during the transition to the new position.
