About A1 Group

Driving Success With An Expert Construction Staffing

A1 Group was originally started as A1 Recruitment and quickly grew to be one of the go-to labour hire companies for Civil and Construction in Tāmaki Makaurau.

In 2021 with the growing needs in the industry, A1 diversified to fixed price work for our clients and key players in concrete works in Tāmaki Makaurau and Waikato with our Contracting division.

A1 Civil was added in 2022 with a high-end civil team in our recruitment division - we decided to do fixed price work where we can offer exceptional people to do the work you need. With our own machines and a talented team, it was an easy move.

Testimonials

Real Stories, Real Results

“I have had A1 Concrete and Recruitment working with us on Waikato expressway for 8 months. They responded quickly to a call for help when another firm let us down and have jumped in to help with 2.5ks of footpath and finishing work on the project. I have found them to be reliable and organised to get stuck in to get the job done - no job too big or small. I highly recommend them for future work, well done guys and thanks for your help.”

Their main focus is to help any staff with where they want to go in the industry, showing the way to reach their goals. Their priority is their staffs well-being, and I have seen it first hand with my progression.”

“It’s my pleasure to provide a recommendation for Dawn & her team. I’ve worked with A1 for many years on several projects and are my 1st choice for all labour hire. I’ve found that the A1 team have a high level of workmanship, commitment & integrity with whoever they bring onto our projects. They’re extremely reliable and have never let me down. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with the A1 team in future projects and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend A1 to others.”
