Recruiting for Restoration Companies
Every day a mitigation or reconstruction seat sits open, jobs wait and crews idle. Bosun is the flat fee recruiting partner for restoration companies that can't afford a bad hire - and can't afford to wait for one.
Flat-fee recruiting
The reality of hiring in restoration
You're running emergency calls, managing crews, and somehow also sourcing candidates. Most restoration owners we work with never built a recruiting process - because the work never stopped long enough.
An open estimator or PM seat means jobs sit unscoped and customers wait - and referrals go elsewhere.
Losing a trained PM or lead tech means re-hiring and re-training while the schedule backs up.
In restoration, a bad hire on a crew or in the office shows up in job quality, cycle time and customer reviews.

The Bosun process
You stay focused on the work. We run the search.
We learn your business, the role, and what success looks like 90 days in — not a generic job description.
We write the job description with you and headhunt directly — no job boards. Screening, vetting, reference and background checks, all handled.
You only see three vetted, interested, aligned candidates. No resume dumps.
Your Recruiting Manager coordinates interviews, manages negotiations, and follows up through the 90-day guarantee window.
Flat-fee recruiting
No percentages. No surprises. No retainers that vanish without a hire. Just real recruiting work, priced like a service — not a commission.
