The problem

What a trades staffing agency should fix

Your crews are booked and the office is the bottleneck. Calls ring out, permits sit, and invoices age while everyone is on a roof.

Office is the bottleneck

Your crews are booked and the office is the bottleneck. Calls ring out, permits sit, and invoices age while everyone is on a roof.

Coordination pays for itself

Staff the coordination desks and the trucks bill more hours. That is the outcome you are buying, not a stack of resumes.

Hiring between service calls

Hiring the same desk yourself means a job post, a screen, and a wait, run between service calls. That is why it takes months.

Every call answered

An intake desk that answers on the second ring books the job your competitor's voicemail just lost.

Transparent pricing

Two models, one honest number

Traditional agencies charge 20-30% of first-year salary and call it done. HireHawk runs two price structures, one per model, and you pay only for the one you use. Nothing is bundled and nothing is hidden.

HVAC

Maintenance agreements, seasonal dispatch spikes, warranty registration.

Plumbing

Emergency intake, flat rate pricing books, permit pulls.

Roofing

Insurance claim files, supplements, material take-offs.

Landscaping

Route density, crew scheduling, recurring contracts.

Electric

How it works

From discovery call to onboarding in 21 days

Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented to clients. Every candidate moves through 5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening before you meet them, and you receive vetted candidates in 10 calendar days from the discovery call.

AI-assisted screening

Every application is screened against the role's real requirements before a recruiter reviews it.

Skills assessment

Candidates prove the core skills the role needs through practical, job-specific tasks.

Communication and culture

We assess English fluency, communication, and fit for how your team actually works.

Background verification

Work history, credentials, and identity are verified before any candidate advances.

Reference checks

We speak to past managers to confirm performance before a candidate reaches you.

Proof

What our clients say.

"I run an ecomm business and have worked with people remote but needed new hires. HireHawk has been incredible. Great talent, great people, great onboarding, great pricing."

"It was very easy working with HireHawk, from looking for viable candidates, the interview process, all the way to implementation of your hire, they handle it all. We are also very happy with our hire. Very easy and seamless process."

"HireHawk filled two senior roles in under two weeks. The candidates were sharper than anything our in-house recruiter surfaced in months."

Growing US companies use HireHawk for vetted candidates in 10 calendar days, onboarding in 21 days, and a guarantee behind every placement: 100% performance replacement on Global Fully Managed, 60-day replacement on US Direct Hire.

Get Candidates

One partner, wherever your next hire lives.

The right model depends on the seat, not the business. Some roles need someone in the building; back-office, documentation and administrative work does not, and costs far less remotely.

FAQ

Questions contractors ask

How much does a trades staffing agency charge?

Traditional agencies charge 20-30% of first-year salary. HireHawk US Direct Hire runs a $995 retainer plus 12.5% of first-year salary, or 15% with no upfront retainer. Global Fully Managed starts at $12/hr all-inclusive and bills month to month. You see the full rate before you interview anyone.

Should I hire a US employee or a global team member?

Ask what the desk touches. If it touches a roof, a homeowner, a truck or a county counter, hire in the US and put the person on your payroll. If it touches a screen, a phone queue or a ledger, run it as a global desk. The right model depends on the desk, not the company.

Do you place licensed field technicians?

No. We do not dispatch licensed technicians by the day. US Direct Hire places permanent office, finance and leadership staff on your payroll. Global Fully Managed covers the back office. Your field crews stay yours to license, train and supervise. If day labor dispatch is what you need, another supplier fits better.

What does a global back office team member do for a trades business?

A global back office team member here works a trade workflow. Typical days cover dispatch board updates, permit tracking, supplier purchase orders, invoice follow-up and review requests. They work your hours inside your systems. They never step onto a job site, so licensing and site safety never enter the picture.

How fast can you fill a role?

A shortlist lands in 10 calendar days for both models. Onboarding closes in 21 days once you choose someone. Speed comes from the bench we already maintain, not from skipping steps, so every candidate still clears 5-Stage Vetting before you see them.

What if an office hire does not work out during your busy season?

US Direct Hire carries a 60-day replacement guarantee. Global Fully Managed carries a 100% performance replacement guarantee. A dedicated Client Success Manager stays on the account for the life of the hire, so most problems surface and get fixed long before a replacement is needed.

Can a global desk use our dispatch and field service software?

Yes. Global team members work inside your field service management platform, your CRM and your accounting file, using access you create and control. Setup happens during the 21 day onboarding. If a tool is licensed per seat, you buy the seat, exactly as you would for a US hire.
