Expert property & development recruitment
Specialist talent across the full property lifecycle.
WHAT WE DO
Great developments don’t deliver themselves, it starts with who you hire.
At Henton Consulting, we deliver specialist property and development recruitment across the full project lifecycle, from acquisitions and feasibility through to delivery, leasing, and asset performance.
Whether you're scaling a national pipeline, managing urban renewal, or unlocking new investment potential, we help you build teams with the capability to navigate timelines, complexity and commercial risk. Our network spans residential, commercial and mixed-use development, covering both private and institutional environments.
We partner with property developers, real estate advisory firms, and government and private sector stakeholders to recruit high-performing professionals who drive project outcomes, on time, on budget, and in line with vision.

WORK WITH THE EXPERTS
How we recruit and why it works.
We take your brief and turn it into action. Fast. Our model combines proactive search with deep sector insight.
We don’t wait for candidates to apply, we identify hidden performers already delivering across major property portfolios, many of whom are quietly open to change. Every search includes:
Dedicated research & market mapping
Direct outreach to passive talent
Structured assessments focused on cultural and technical alignment
No shortlists. Just the right person, first time.
Because we understand risk, yield, feasibility, ROI, and timeline pressure, we ask sharper questions. That means we filter faster, and you interview only the right people.
The difference between a project that delivers and one that stalls often comes down to a single hire. And in this market, average hires cost more than vacancies.
WORK WITH THE EXPERTS
Why employers trust us.
We don’t send options, we send the one candidate who can do the job.
