More than half of Optima's heavy lifting and plant candidates have been with us for a number of years. Our expert team of recruiters will never place a candidate unless we are entirely confident that they are the right individual for the task at hand. Without exception, all operatives have had their trade certificates/qualifications verified using the NOCN database.

Optima is leading the way in construction recruitment when it comes to compliance. Optima candidates have their medical checks confirmed and have at least two references from reputable past employers prior to being offered a contract on site as a crane operator, plant operator or heavy lifting operative with any client.

Full out-of-hours service 24/7

Optima Site Solutions understand that our clients cannot afford to lose a moment let alone a day without an operator on site. Because of this, we offer a full out-of-hours service 24/7 to allow for that unforeseen emergency to help limit downtime for our clients’ crane/plant operators and also to mitigate against costly delays to our clients’ projects.

Optima recruitment consultants have remote access to the extensive database of candidates and will do their utmost to satisfy any last-minute requirements, inside or outside of usual business hours.

Our Heavy Lifting & Plant Division currently has a database of around 4000 experienced crane operators, and 2000 fully trained Banksman Slingers, Crane Supervisors, and Appointed Persons. Working with our clients nationwide we can provide any type of crane operator for any duration of hire: from 1 day to several years. We can supply anything from crane operators for heavy lift crawler cranes with luffing jib attachments to operators for pedestrian tower cranes. We will always endeavour to source exactly the right person for the job.

Optima Site Solutions offers additional services such as contract lifts, lift plans and Tower Crane Operator Assessments for each tower crane operator before they commence their active operation on the client’s site.

Client Testimonials

“Over the past 3 years, I have found the level of service received from Optima to be excellent. They have supplied the operators I require when I require them, and I have found that the operators supplied have been competent and reliable. As soon as I require extra operators, Optima are the first call I make and they are very prompt in responding with a positive. I would not hesitate to recommend Optima Site Solutions’ services in the future, as I have done in the past.”

“We have always had the highest level of service from the Optima team. They have helped us out many a time when we have been struggling to cover work. The lads they send to us have all been fully ticketed and always willing to help out. They have now become our main supplier for temp staff.

Thanks for making my job easier.

“Since I have started using Joe Calinski and Optima Site Solutions Ltd, I can wholeheartedly state that the level of service offered is consistently high. We have at times given him next to no notice and miraculously he ‘pulls it out of the bag’.

From the front-end contact of asking for a specific trade through to invoicing, they make the process seem seamless and effortless. Joe has built an incredible team in a short space of time who are well versed in reading the clients needs early on in a contract. For once in my career I am not pestered by consultants offering trades, or promising the planet just to make their targets.

Joe and Optima are the preferred suppliers for all my labour requirements and will continue to be my No1 until such time as standards of service subside. Knowing Joe and the way he operates, I cannot foresee any reason why A2M and Optima will not have a long running client/supplier relationship.

I would not hesitate to recommend Optima Site Solutions Ltd to anyone for their labour requirements.”
