Steel Fixer Recruitment in Reading — Specialist Construction Agency
Hard Hat is a specialist construction recruitment agency supplying steel fixers to construction sites across Reading & Berkshire. We work exclusively in construction — no white-collar generalism, no admin temps — so when you register with us you go on the books of recruiters who actually understand the trade.
Steel fixers cut, bend, and tie reinforcement bars to create the structural framework for concrete construction. They work on foundations, columns, beams, slabs, and specialist structures such as bridges and tunnels. Hard Hat supplies experienced steel fixers with CSCS cards for major construction and civil engineering projects across London and the South East. Our steel fixers can read reinforcement drawings, work at height, and deliver to programme on complex structural projects. We also supply steel fixing gangs for large-scale infrastructure and rail projects.
Reading is one of the Thames Valley's most active construction markets, with major commercial office developments, residential schemes, and infrastructure projects driven by its excellent transport links and proximity to London. Hard Hat supplies construction workforce to contractors across Reading, Woodley, Caversham, and the wider M4 corridor. We provide operatives for commercial fit-outs, residential new builds, data centre construction, and infrastructure schemes.
Whether you are looking for your next steel fixer job in Reading, want a contractor to swap into a better-paying site, or you are a main contractor needing reliable steel fixer supply, we mobilise quickly. Most steel fixers we register are working within 48 hours. We supply to Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors on residential, commercial, fit-out, civils and infrastructure projects.
