How Future Build Recruitment turns CVs into a client-attraction tool with HireAra
Future Build Recruitment, a growing UK recruitment firm specialising in construction and engineering, needed a smarter way to showcase their candidates.
Manual formatting slowed them down and submissions lacked the polish to make an impact in sealing the deal for candidates. Since switching to HireAra, they’ve transformed candidate presentations from generic CVs to standout showcases, all while saving time, impressing clients, and winning more business.
Challenge
- Manual CV formatting was eating up consultant time and causing inconsistencies
- Submissions lacked visual impact, making it hard to stand out with clients
- No visibility as to whether clients were opening or reviewing submissions
Approach
- Switched to HireAra to build branded, consultant-led profiles in seconds
- Integrated directly with their CRM for one-click candidate submissions
- Gained real-time insight into client engagement for more accurate follow-ups
Results
- Cut admin time by up to 80% per candidate submission
- Elevated presentation with consistent, professional design
- Gained full transparency on client clicks, views, and interactions
From Word docs to wow factor
Before HireAra, submitting a candidate meant spending 20+ minutes reformatting CVs, proofreading layouts, and hoping the PDF didn’t get lost in a client’s cluttered inbox.
Now, consultants create every submission directly from the CRM. Candidate data flows automatically into a customisable, branded profile with consultant notes, availability, salary expectations, and any other information the client needs to make a perfect match.
“It’s completely changed the way we submit. We’re no longer wasting time formatting documents, we’re adding value, sending candidates our clients remember.”

Candidate experience meets client impact
Recruitment is about trust and every interaction counts. With HireAra, Future Build has elevated the experience for both their candidates and clients.
Every submission is now a reflection of the agency’s brand and the consultants’ professionalism.
- For candidates, their experience with the agency feels more professional and consistent.
- For clients, submissions are no longer just Word documents, they’re engaging, interactive profiles that bring each candidate to life.
“We’re not just sending CVs any more, we’re presenting talent and that makes a difference when a client is reviewing submissions from multiple agencies in one day.”
Built for recruiters who want to deliver more with every submission
HireAra has become an integral part of how Future Build operates. It’s changed their mindset around candidate delivery, from a transactional task to a strategic tool that reinforces the agency’s brand, quality and professionalism.
“It’s easy to use, saves us hours and helps us win business. What more do you want from a tool?”
Every consultant now builds their submissions through HireAra as standard. It’s not just about the ease of use. It’s about the advantage it brings at every stage of the hiring process.
