Strategic Business Partner to the Built Environment
Our Mission
To redefine how construction and engineering companies scale their capacity — by connecting them with the right subcontractors, talent, suppliers, and technology partners under one strategic partnership.
Our Story
Global Group Partnerships began as a recruitment company focused on construction and engineering.
We served clients through contingency recruitment and built strong relationships across the UK, USA, Middle East.
As the industry evolved, we saw a bigger opportunity:
Companies didn’t just need people.
They needed subcontractors, suppliers, tech, and support functions — and they needed them fast.
Today, we operate as a strategic partner, providing multiple solutions under one roof.
Our Approach
• Partnership, not transactions
• Quality over quantity
• Speed with accuracy
• Transparency in how we work
• Consistent, long-term support

Andrew Francis
Founder strategic partner
As a Strategic Business Partner in the built environment, I work with:
• Real estate companies and investors
• Construction law practices
• General contractors and specialist contractors
• Materials and product suppliers
My goal is simple: focus on your key issues so I can become a genuine asset to your business — not just another external contact.
Over the past decade, I’ve moved from specialist recruitment into growth, operations and management consulting, supporting organisations across construction, engineering and real estate. This journey has given me a rare vantage point: I understand the people, the contracts, the capital and the operational realities that drive performance in our industry.
As the Founder & COO of Global Group Partnership Ltd and known as “The Construction Apostle”, I:
• Help leaders re-engage dormant relationships and unlock hidden opportunities
• Strengthen commercial strategies, bid approaches and go-to-market plans
• Support talent, organisational design and key leadership hires
• Advise on partnerships between investors, contractors, consultants and suppliers
My work is underpinned by three core principles:
• Growth through Connection – relationships first, transactions second
• Growth through Opportunity – seeing value where others see noise
• Growth through Integrity – ethical, transparent and sustainable business
I bring a consultative, solutions-focused mindset to every engagement, whether that’s:
• Helping a real estate investor assemble the right delivery partners
• Supporting a contractor to differentiate and win tenders
• Working with a law firm or consultant to strengthen their construction client offering
• Helping a specialist supplier create stronger routes to market
If you’re in the real estate or construction ecosystem and looking for a strategic partner who understands growth, people and partnerships across the full value chain, let’s connect.
Open to strategic conversations with founders, partners, directors and investors across the built environment.
