Logistics Staffing Agency
Why Work with a Logistics Staffing Agency?
Need to add to your transportation and logistics workforce? Whether you’re an employer or a job seeker in the logistics industry, there are many benefits to working with a logistics employment agency. We understand the importance of hiring skilled, reliable professionals who understand logistics, supply chain, and warehouse operations. Sourcing and staffing qualified professionals can be a constant and costly process, taking valuable time away from your managers or HR staff. Working with specialized recruiters puts a hiring professional on your team to provide workforce solutions and identify logistics talent so you can focus on business operations. Logistics recruiters have the expertise and resources to understand the current labor market and are constantly finding new professionals ready to make a move or join the logistics industry. For temp and temp-to-hire logistics jobs, they also take on all employer responsibilities.
If you're seeking work, recruiters can be a bridge connecting you with hard-to-reach local hiring managers at great companies with immediate openings. Our service is free for job seekers, so there's no risk. Our success depends on your success!
Staffing Services
Permanent Placement/Direct Hire Jobs
Direct hire employees are employed by the hiring company. Staffing solutions ease the traditional process by sourcing talent and coordinating interviews and offer negotiations. All you have to do is choose the right candidate for your team!
Contract Jobs
Need some extra hands for your workforce to handle a crucial project? Contract roles save time and money on HR functions and allow clients to easily add and cut staff as company needs require. For contractors, it's a great opportunity to gain industry experience with new equipment and tasks, building skills that will further your goals without making a firm commitment. Contract roles can even sometimes convert into perm positions.
Temporary-to-Hire Jobs
Hiring the wrong candidate is costly, wasting time, money, and resources on someone who lacks ability or who quits after you've invested weeks of training in them. If you want to make sure a candidate will be a good fit before hiring, or if you are an employee wanting to try a new job while keeping your options open, temp-to-hire may be the best route. These roles give both parties an opportunity to test the waters before making a commitment.
Temporary Jobs
Temp roles are great options for companies whose workforce staffing needs vary regularly or for individuals looking to get started in a new industry and gain experience and business connections. Temp employees are redShift employees, which means we handle everything from onboarding to payroll and taxes.
Executive Search
Staffing at the executive level can be a challenge. An executive search firm specializing in the logistics industry can do the hard work for you. Our recruiters find the best executives so you can focus on choosing the individual who will be the best fit for your team.
Remote Positions
Although less common in the manufacturing or transportation industry, remote work options are becoming more popular in many types of businesses, allowing candidates and companies to expand their search beyond their immediate area.
Recruitment Process
Candidate Database & Other Resources
We source the top logistics talent from a large pool of local workers, creating a database of active and passive employment seekers. This allows our industrial recruiters to quickly identify and contact potential candidates to fill open supply chain and logistics jobs.
Job Boards
In addition to our existing candidate database and connections, we also scour local and national job boards for logistics professionals looking for new opportunities.
Phone Interviews and In-Person Interviews
All redShift candidates are interviewed by a trained recruiter over the phone, virtually, or in person. This provides an understanding of candidates' experience and career goals.
Reference Checks
redShift checks professional references to verify work history and experience.
Hiring Process
Professionals working in temp, contract, and temp-to-hire roles are redShift employees, which means we handle all aspects of employment, including coordinating start and end dates, taxes, workers' comp, insurance requirements, etc. For permanent employees, redShift coordinates offer negotiations and other aspects of the hiring process once the hiring company makes an offer.
