GKR International has recruited exclusively within real estate since 2010. That focus is deliberate; deep sector knowledge is what separates a good recruitment partner from a transactional one. We cover the full breadth of the industry, from high-street residential agencies to major commercial developers, across five specialist areas.
Whether you are a client looking for precision hiring at senior level, or a candidate seeking a move within the sector, you are talking to consultants who have spent years in your market. They know the firms, the people, and the dynamics that rarely appear in a job description.
Residential is where GKR started and where our network runs deepest. Our consultants work with a wide range of residential operators, from independent high street agencies to large corporate chains, boutique developers, and investment-led agencies. We understand the performance culture, the seasonal rhythms, and the kind of people who thrive in residential sales and lettings environments. We work with high street estate agencies, corporate residential chains, residential property developers, investment agencies and new homes specialists.
Our commercial team places professionals across the private and public sectors, working with the consultancies, developers, banks, and funds that shape the commercial built environment. We have developed strong relationships across the industry over many years, which means we can reach active and passive candidates that a less specialist firm simply cannot access. We work with property and construction consultancies across the private and public sector, commercial developers, banks and real estate finance teams, and investment funds and asset managers.
Property management recruitment is one of GKR's most established specialisms, led by consultants with direct first-hand experience in the field. We work with the full spectrum of operators, from large managing agents and estate agencies to private portfolios, commercial mixed-use schemes, student accommodation providers, and investment funds. This breadth means we understand what good looks like across very different operating environments. We work with residential and commercial estate agencies, block and leasehold managing agents, private investment portfolios, commercial and mixed-use developments, student accommodation providers, and investment funds with direct property management.
GKR's professional services team places specialists across finance, legal, compliance, advisory, technology, marketing, administration, and sustainability, working exclusively within property-led organisations. We understand what good looks like within a real estate context, which makes the difference when brief descriptions can look identical across sectors. We work with estate agencies and managing agents, property developers and investors, commercial landlords and portfolios, student accommodation and build-to-rent operators, and investment funds and asset managers.
GKR acquired Beeken Reeves in 2021, bringing deep specialism in architecture, design, and the wider built environment into the business. Our team places professionals across architectural and interior design consultancies, property developers, and project leads for permanent appointments, as well as professional interim and contract solutions. Long-standing relationships with leading practices mean we are trusted with the searches that require genuine understanding of how the industry operates. We work with architectural and interior design consultancies, property developers, main contractors and project management firms, and urban design and planning consultancies.
