Darcy Associates Support Offset Earth - Climate Positive Action

The construction industry often gets bad publicity regarding its impact on the environment and climate change. Wishing to do something positive to redress this balance, Nathan Ferris, of specialist construction recruiters Darcy Associates, has teamed up with Offset Earth.

If you could travel back in time to their beginning, you'd be able to pop round to their founder Nathan Ferris house and see him preparing a fantastic new journey connecting construction workers to amazing companies across the country. It was a pretty exciting moment but a big challenge that was made to be tackled head on.

Jump back in the DeLorean and head back to the present day and Nathan is no longer a lone ranger. They've now got a fantastic team of passionate recruiters who put their heart and soul into finding a link between job seekers and scaling construction companies. They've worked with over 200 clients, registered over 35,000 candidates and filled 97% of the vacancies their clients have brought to us. Thats a lot of happy people finding their dream roles and a lot of growing businesses getting support.

Their services include temporary, permanent and contract recruitment across all sectors within construction. They can provide comprehensive training services to up skill candidates and provide credit facilities to their client base.

They are passionate about helping scaling companies reach their potential by working in alignment to their values, understanding the growth plans and supporting employers with their mission to success in a competitive and exciting industry. 

By signing up with Offset Earth, an individual or business can fund tree planting and carbon offsetting projects.

Nathan explains “ We wanted to support a project where our carbon footprint as a company can be offset. Through Offset Earth we have been supporting the planting of trees and the restoration of mangroves in Madagascar. It’s easy to see the impact that our donations make, and we know that we are playing our part to preserve our planet.”

In 2019 a joint letter from 11,000 scientists declaring a climate emergency, they have singled out restoring mangroves as a major natural climate solution. They store four times as much carbon as a tropical rainforest. Offset Earth has their own designated land, to the north-west of the island, near Marataola. Here they are planting in an area of 1,354 hectares (about 180km2)
