Case Study: G&R Kelly - Building a Stronger Workforce and Digital Presence
Client Overview
G&R Kelly is a medium-sized heavy civil construction company based in Halifax. With around 40 employees when we first engaged with them, they were facing significant challenges in scaling their team to meet the demands of new projects. Their struggle to find qualified workers was holding them back from growth opportunities in the competitive construction industry.
The Challenge
When we started working with G&R, they were in immediate need of around 15 skilled employees but were having difficulty sourcing qualified candidates. Their recruitment efforts were stalling, which limited their ability to take on more projects and grow the business. Additionally, their digital presence, including their website and online visibility, needed a refresh to better showcase the company's culture and attract both talent and clients.

To make G&R Kelly stand out to potential hires, we created a series of professional recruitment videos. These videos were designed to highlight the company’s culture, its long-standing reputation, and the opportunities it offers for a long-term career—not just a job. The videos played a key role in selling candidates on the benefits of joining G&R Kelly.
