Celebrating a Decade of Excellence: UKR Group’s 10-Year Journey


UKR Group’s 10th Anniversary

A decade of dedication, hard work, and unwavering commitment has propelled us to this remarkable point. None of it would have been possible without the incredible support of our dedicated team, our cherished clients, and the exceptional individuals we’ve had the honour of placing in their dream roles. Thank you!

Throughout the years, we’ve been privileged to witness countless success stories, playing a pivotal role in shaping careers and fostering business growth. Together, we’ve achieved so much, and we couldn’t be prouder.

Our Story

Our story began in 2013 when founders Darragh O’Brien and Michael Hegarty, both experienced carpenters, saw a need for a recruitment agency that truly understood the construction industry.

UKR Group was born out of the frustration of being a site manager ordering workers from agencies and their lack of a deeper understanding of construction. Drawing from their first-hand experience in the construction industry, they identified the voids and envisioned a better way forward.

What set UKR apart from the outset was our intimate understanding of the construction industry. Having walked in the shoes of site managers themselves, they knew exactly what clients needed.

Over the past decade, UKR has expanded its reach and diversified its portfolio. We specialize in Construction, Civil Engineering, Rail & Utilities, both in blue and white-collar roles. We’ve grown from a team of two to an established agency trusted by clients like Claridge’s Hotel, Berkeley Hotel, The American Embassy and Battersea Power Station to name a few. Our dedication to honesty, quality, and fostering lasting relationships has been key to our success.

As UKR Group celebrates its 10th anniversary, we reflect on the past decade, our gaze is fixed firmly on the horizon, brimming with excitement for the promising future ahead. Our passion for connecting talent with opportunity remains undiminished, propelling us forward as we strive to make a meaningful impact in the years to come. Cheers to a decade of excellence, and here’s to many more successful years ahead!
