Sub-Sight’s parent company,
Aspire Recruitment Group, have been chosen as preferred labour supplier on the historic site in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire which is due for completion in late 2009.
The Tesco superstore, constructed by RG Carter, will utilise Nano Gel roof lights, Wind Catchers, wind turbines, rainwater harvesting and solar-powered streetlights, as well as other ground-breaking technologies, but, better still, RG Carter have said that they will look at companies on Sub-Sight before chosing sub-contractors for the site.
For Sub-Sight to be considered as an option, for selecting local companies to complete sub-contract packages, on a landmark package such as this is a huge boost for all involved and will guarantee sub-contractors involved an easier path through this coming winter.
Aspire Recruitment Group and Sub-Sight managing director, Ashley Percival-Smith said on securing work on the project, “The project will involve technologies and techniques never before used and it would seem appropriate that the main contractors have chosen to use a groundbreaking service such as Sub-Sight in order to source the right local sub-contractors.”

Aspire Recruitment Group, Sub-Sight’s parent company have begun supplying trades, labour and machine operators to a number of contractors on
all of the various Olympic sites in East London.
Workers sourced, vetted and fully referenced by Aspire are now working on the Olympic Stadium site, the Athlete’s Village site and the site of the new Westfield Shopping Centre.
This will only have a positive effect on the image of Sub-Sight within the construction industry and is bound to encourage more and more main contractors to use Sub-Sight when looking for a local sub-contractor.
Sub-Sight benefits from the existing, and developing, relationships between Aspire Recruitment and many of the most prominent main contractors and developers in the industry, and it is these relationships which have secured new business for many of the sub-contractors currently advertising on Sub-Sight.

The new areas will go live on the site during September 2009 but spaces within the new areas are selling fast as publicity surrounding Sub-Sight grows.
This means that Sub-Sight now comprehensively covers twenty counties in the South-East of England and is actively working to put sub-contractors in touch with developers and principal contractors in the following areas:
- Bedfordshire
- Buckinghamshire
- Berkshire (New!)
- Cambridgeshire
- Essex (New!)
- Gloucestershire (New!)
- Greater London (New!)
- Hampshire (New!)
- Hertfordshire
- Leicestershire (New!)
- Lincolnshire (New!)
- Norfolk (New!)
- Northamptonshire
- Oxfordshire
- Suffolk (New!)
- Surrey (New!)
- Warwickshire
- West Midlands (New!)
- Wiltshire (New!)
- Worcestershire (New!)
Since its inception in March 2009, Sub-Sight has helped scores of sub-contractors in the South-East of England find new business due to their inclusion in the directory.
Now, due to phenomenal demand, Sub-Sight has extended its scope to cover another 13 counties (see below) and, as a result, has set a target of £25m in new contracts for sub-contractors in this newly extended area.
The 4000+ current projects within this region amount to a total value of over £3.8billion so far this year, ands this does not include the work going on in preparation for the London 2012 Olympics. This means that there will be somewhere in the region of 80,000 sub-contract packages going out to tender. Our intention is to ensure that, through effective networking on their behalf, our Sub-Sight members pick up a proportion of this work.
£25million works out at less than 1% of the total works being carried out in the region. Not such an unrealistic target after all? It stands to reason, when analysing these figures, that many of the sub-contract packages on projects in this region must be going to firms from outside the geographical region. Sub-Sight aims to re-claim a portion of the revenue in the Midlands and South-East of England for local firms.
