Electrical Supervisor

Having recently taken over responsibilities of the business my dad started, I have continued the working relationship that Paul from P.I.E.R and my dad have had for well over 20 years. Getting to know Paul has been great, he is very knowledgeable on our industry and he gets us the right people to suit us. All contact I have had with Paul’s staff has been a pleasant experience and I look forward to this continuing working relationship.

We’ve recently used P.I.E.R for a project in the St Athan region, Paul has gone above and beyond to understand the requirements of our company and fulfilling every need we have requested.They have provided us with the highest calibre of Electricians for our project. Their knowledge and experience have helped our company go from strength to strength and build our relationship with our client, resulting in more future works.

Electrical Project Engineer

Having worked closely with Paul Ingram (P.I.E.R) and his staff I find Pier a reputable agency for temporary staff, the labour is always thoroughly vetted before they are offered and are always good hard-working tradesman. Pier have never failed me in my times of need, and I would highly recommend Pier for casual Labour.

Northwick Park Hospital Project

After the 2 ‘no shows’ at the start of the 3-week period, he was a good find / good guy, so if you need labour in that area again, I would highly recommend him. I will be in touch when I need extra labour again.

Quality Administrator, Mechanical Client, South Wales

“You have about 30% fewer staff working for us so in answer to your question, no, it’s because you’re doing your job better!

Mechanical Project Manager, Energy Distribution Client, Blackburn

We cannot speak highly enough of Paul Ingram and his team at P.I.E.R. We met with Paul Ingram regarding an Electrical Supervisor / Engineer and the type of person we wanted to suit the role and the type of project we are working on. Paul and his team spent a lot of time and effort selecting the right candidates for the position, we are now 18 months into a further phase of works at Morriston Hospital, for our client and we have a fantastic relationship with them and a great site team, and as result we have now employed the supervisor on a permanent basis. We would highly recommend Paul and his team at Pier and look forward to working with them in the future.

Over the last 5 years I have had a fantastic experience with P.I.E.R, especially Paul who has overseen and taken care of me, very reliable and approachable person who will do his best to find you work.

Contracts Manager, Mechanical Client, South Wales

Luke is a good guy, working well and getting on with everyone at the arena.

Plumber, South Wales

I can only offer sincere praise for Paul, and the team at Pier consulting. Having worked as a sub contract plumber for a number of years, Paul has consistently provided me with quality work, on professional sites. 

You always know where you stand with Paul. If he says he’s going to do something, you can count on it being done. He works hard to develop lasting relationships with all of us that work through Pier consulting, always paying the highest rates, and even sending us all gifts on birthdays and at Christmas. I can’t speak highly enough of Paul and P.I.E.R. And it is always my first point of contact when I’m looking for work.

Thanks for everything.

Plumber, Swansea

I’ve been working for pier consulting for the last 8 months. I’ve had no problems with payment   Always on time and always right. Paul has been very good to me personally when I had an accident on site he messaged me every day to check if I was ok.  This agency has been a stand out compare to other agencies. Thanks again.

Plumber, Swansea

I got laid off from my job of 7 years in July and signed up with Pier consulting. From day one they were magnificent and so easy to work alongside with. I’ve been with them now for 9 months and have had work constantly through that period. Pier are also so easy to contact and communication is next to none. Highly recommend.

Plumber, South Wales

Over the years P.I.E.R have kept me in regular employment on ambitious contracts. Friendly and approachable staff who keep in touch on a frequent basis, always competing for a fair rate and terms for the tradesman. Highly recommended.

Housing Association Client, Cardiff

Yes I have been happy with Alex and his work. He has mainly been carrying out periodic electric tests and doing 2 every day with a very good access rate, and would have no hesitation on using him again.

CMB Engineering

Thanks for ‘holding his hand’ through the process. He’s lucky to work for you and not other (unnamed) agencies. I don’t know of many who would have done all of that for an agency worker.

Mechanical Supervisor, Cardiff

It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with you on this project, you went above and beyond to make sure we were provided with skilled tradesmen needed to complete this project in a short time scale. That is a great achievement for an employment agency considering the current climate and resources available. You stayed in touch throughout the nightshifts on a regular basis checking up on everyone’s well-being which I can not fault you for, all I can say is that it was a pleasure to work with you and hope to stay with you all the best for the future.

Dodd Group Cymru

We have recently delivered a large student accommodation scheme in Cardiff with a very tight construction programme, which required high level of skilled M&E resource on a complex sequence of work.  P.I.E.R were able to support our needs throughout the period of construction by working collaboratively with us prior to commencement on site.  We were able to sit down and discuss our initial resource needs, working time scales, labour expectations and payment fees to establish a mutual understanding going forward for the period of the scheme.  We were pleased with the outcome overall and Pier were found to be adaptable and flexible at stages that were of high strategic importance to the scheme.  They also encouraged a feeling of togetherness for their employees, which was demonstrated several times, one example of which was Pier management calling to site and providing all of their operatives with Easter Eggs as a small gesture of their efforts.

The paperwork information and record keeping was also very good and the quality of operatives in most parts was above average, which reflects in our working ethos and ultimately aided the delivery of a quality project.

 

We look forward to working with P.I.E.R on future schemes.
