SIA Recognizes US Staffing Firms That Achieved Significant Organic Growth From 2017 to 2021 

Mountain View, California – September 20, 2022 – Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA), the global advisor on staffing and workforce solutions, released its 2022 Fastest-Growing US Staffing Firms list. The list ranks firms by compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for US staffing revenue over the past five years, excluding acquisitions. Sponsoring this year’s list is The Braff Group, a leading mergers and acquisitions advisory firm.

“The 2022 Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms list displays a masterclass in perseverance. Emerging from the pandemic with organic growth is a true achievement and testament to the staffing industry’s strength, even in the most turbulent of times,” said SIA President Barry Asin. “Our list of staffing firms more than doubled this year and SIA is honored to present these resilient staffing firms to the world. A huge congratulations to our 2022 honorees!”

The 2022 list includes 122 staffing firms, up from 52 firms listed in 2021. Following are the top 10 fastest-growing firms:

To be considered for the Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms list, companies must meet a minimum revenue threshold of $1 million in 2017 and have had a CAGR of at least 15% between 2017 and 2021. Qualifying data for the ranking is collected and evaluated in SIA’s annual staffing firm survey.

The median 2022 CAGR for all firms listed is 30.3%. With 14 firms, California was the state with the most headquarters of firms on the list followed by New Jersey (13 firms) and Florida (11 firms). IT was the most prevalent segment on the list at 45 firms followed by the travel nursing segment at 35 firms, which experienced significant growth driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, 29 listed firms exceeded $300 million in revenue and six had revenues of more than $1 billion.

“Staffing firms really stepped up during the pandemic, delivering extraordinary value when it was needed the most”, said Dexter Braff, president of The Braff Group. “What’s more, they are ideally positioned to meet the needs of a workforce that increasingly values greater control and flexibility regarding when and where they will work, and the number of hours they choose to devote.”

The 2022 Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms ranking debuted today featuring profiles of each firm at fastestgrowing.staffingindustry.com. The September/October 2022 issue of Staffing Industry Review magazine highlights interviews with leaders from the top 10 fastest-growing firms.
