4Core service lines covering every workforce need
7S.Q.U.A.T.C.H. principles guiding every placement
2Specialized divisions: light industrial and white-glove recruiting
What you get
Four services. One goal: the right hire.
From warehouse floor to plant leadership, we cover the full spectrum of workforce needs.
White-Glove Recruiting
Permanent placement for specialized and leadership positions - operations and plant management, engineering, journeyman mechanics, sales, HR, accounting, and administrators.
Payrolling
We handle employment administration, tax filings, compliance, and HR paperwork so your team doesn't have to.
Candidate Management
End-to-end hiring support from sourcing through onboarding. We manage the process so you can focus on running your operation.
The case for change
Traditional staffing floods your inbox. We don't.
Most agencies send piles of resumes and hope something sticks. We do the opposite - deep discovery, selective presentation, and candidates who are actually aligned with your role and culture.
The old way
- ×Recruiters dump unqualified resumes in your inbox
- ×You spend hours screening candidates who never should have been sent
- ×High fees with no guarantee of quality or fit
- ×Transactional relationships - here today, gone tomorrow
- ×Repeat hiring cycles because placements don't stick
The BigFoot way
- +We present only highly relevant, pre-qualified candidates
- +Deep discovery process to understand your culture and needs
- +Competitive pricing model that reduces overall hiring costs
- +Long-term partnership built on transparency and collaboration
- +Selective presentation focused on long-term fit and retention
