11/10/2008
Suzanne Breistol (formerly Upham) formed Florida
Construction Connection after seven years with a
national personnel agency. She started a construction
division for one of the local franchises of the national
agency. Suzanne was the #1 recruiter in the national
system while there and she achieved that goal faster
than anyone to date in the history of the company.
Suzanne had nine years' experience prior to entering the
construction personnel business in construction related
sales, design and project management.
Suzanne has previously owned a small business. She was
the Chapter Consultant for an International Leads Club
for six years in Florida which involved sales,
leadership training and networking for small businesses.
Currently Suzanne sits on the Board of the
Construction
Executives Association and the
American Society of
Professional Estimators. She is the Co-Chair for the
Associated Builders and Contractors Women's Council and
active in The Associated General Contractors along with
other select industry events. Previously Suzanne was
active for years on both the Education and Youth
Education committees for the Construction Association of
South Florida.
Florida Construction Connection specializes in matching
people in the industry together for better business
opportunities. So whether you are a Construction
Management, Administrative or Accounting professional
looking to make a move to another company to achieve
your career goals, an employer looking for a top
industry professional to join your team, a company
looking for business development or marketing strategies
and introductions or a business owner or executive
looking to make the right introductions in the industry
to strengthen your ability to grow the bottom line, then
you need to contact Florida Construction Connection.
Florida Construction Connection specializes in the
Florida marketplace with an emphasis on South Florida.
Our commitment is to the construction industry in
Florida, therefore we do not pursue business on a
national level.
Business Development Services:
Florida Construction Connection offers a full menu of
services to Owners, Developers and Contractors in the
Construction Industry. Our services include leadership coaching, strategic
planning, business leads and introductions, meeting
facilitation and other growth opportunities. These
services are customized to our clients’ needs and the
fees are in accordance with the services provided.
Career Placement Services for
Florida Construction Jobs:
We maintain a database of currently employed
construction industry professionals mostly residing in
or that have resided in Florida. We also meet with local
candidates in person to discuss their career goals,
experience level, salary history and to get to know them
better. These people know that confidentiality is of
utmost importance to us and that we don't call them
unless we have a valid opportunity to discuss with them.
We check three to five references on candidates prior to
working with them. We like to see the references of
people the candidate has worked directly with or
directly for within the past five years. Due to our
active involvement in the local construction community
this allows us to get information on candidates we may
not as easily get or be able to confirm.
Upon a pending offer and acceptance, Florida
Construction Connection offers our clients any type of
testing they would like to have done including criminal,
background, motivational, personality profiling, drug
etc. We also help our clients with salary and benefits
statistics, offer letters, employee manuals and anything
else they may need assistance with to grow and maintain
their team of professionals.
We like to build relationships with our clients and
applicants. We look out for their best interest. We know
that we are only as good as our last placement. In
addition we know that if we work with the top industry
companies and professionals our business will grow
successfully. We know that a top project manager for one
company may not fit into another because every company
has their own culture and diversity.
Florida Construction Connection looks for long-term
serviceable relationships with our clients for their
hiring needs. We have a contingency fee structure which
offers a discount to our clients over time as we get to
know them and their company. We don't ask for exclusives
because we know this business is timing, but we do ask
to be involved in helping them with strategizing and
building the full team. We choose not to recruit for a
company that is not interested in building a healthy
relationship for all parties involved.
To sum it all up on what distinguishes Florida
Construction Connection from other recruiting and
business development firms is our commitment, concern,
dedication and professionalism with the people in the
Construction industry here in Florida. |
