The Contractor Consultants

What The Contractor Consultants does

The Contractor Consultants LLC is a US-based, privately held recruitment services firm operating as a California LLC from Glendale. Founded in 2020, the company delivers a done-for-you, flat-fee hiring platform purpose-built for the construction industry. Its core offering is the Active Headhunter monthly subscription at $2,495 per month, covering up to three active job campaigns under one location; additional roles are billed at $832/month and additional locations at $250/month. A higher-tier annual program, the Great Hiring Partner, adds multiple hiring funnels, a Branded Hiring Suite (custom career pages and employer-branded job ads), quarterly retention reviews, and monthly market intelligence. A legacy Outsourced Hiring tier has been discontinued for new enrollments. The company's revenue model is purely recurring subscription, supplemented by $80-per-check background screening pass-through fees.

The underlying technology stack is a recruitment and applicant tracking workflow combined with branded hiring suite assets. TCC manages job postings across multiple boards (Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and others), runs applicant funnels, performs initial phone screens, administers Kolbe-A Index personality assessments, runs county/state/national background checks and reference verifications, and delivers 3-5 pre-vetted finalists per role. The company is co-founded by Matt DiBarra (a fourth-generation mason credited in industry materials) and Luca Malacrino (COO and co-founder). Distribution is direct-to-construction-company, supported by content marketing (blog, 'The Friday Pour' newsletter, YouTube), social presence across LinkedIn, X, Facebook, and Instagram, and industry partnerships with MCAA, ABC, NAHB-IBS, World of Concrete, and RoofCON, alongside platform partners Billd and Angi. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; no institutional funding has been raised.

The company is positioned around a clear value proposition: replacing traditional 15-20% recruiter commissions with flat-fee subscriptions, absorbing approximately 95% of the hiring workload, and packaging outputs as a small set of pre-vetted finalists per role. Publicly disclosed outcomes include case-study customers PBC Hotel (5 hires, ~$128,500 in claimed recruitment-cost savings) and DC Construction (3 roles filled in 12 weeks, ~$60,000 saved). TCC reports an average 3-week time-to-hire and claims coverage across 80+ construction industry sub-verticals. Recognitions include a 2023 Quality and Craftsmanship Award from the United States Congress (attributed to co-founder Matt DiBarra) and 2024 Top Outsourced Hiring Company from Construction Business Review.
