ESW Staffing was founded in 1983 and has developed a diverse business portfolio, allowing the organization to become a regional leading provider of hospitality staffing and event staffing services to the Phoenix and Tucson markets. As the area’s longest standing hospitality staffing firm, the former ESW Staffing specializes in staffing large complex events requiring hundreds of credentialed and skilled staff as well as staffing smaller events requiring short term help for private banquets.

“I am delighted to welcome the staff and clients of ESW Staffing to the Trillium brand of companies. The compilation of diverse client companies, talented field staff, and dynamic internal staff made ESW Staffing a great addition to the Trillium brand. We look forward to expanding our business in hospitality and event staffing.”

– René Poch, CEO

The addition marks the largest expansion into the hospitality staffing and event staffing sector for the Trillium Hospitality brand specializing in the hiring of servers, bartenders, chefs, cooks, supervisors, leads and other positions. Clients in the southwest region will now receive the additional benefit of Trillium’s leading recruitment processes as well as the existing talent pool of nearly 2 million candidates. This marks Trillium’s second acquisition this year in the hospitality and event staffing sector, following the February acquisition of Tampa, FL based Roy’s Staffing, Inc.

The former ESW Staffing will be led by Regional Vice President Nadine Garvin, with existing General Manager Michelle Hansen overseeing daily operations.

The Trillium brand of companies is privately owned by René Poch and provides more than 30 years of industry leading recruitment and staffing services through its divisions including: Trillium Staffing, Trillium Construction Services, Trillium Driver Solutions, Trillium Marine, Trillium Technical, Trillium Environmental, Trillium Hospitality and Trillium Techs. With approximately 98 offices nationwide and nearly 400 internal recruitment professionals, the Trillium brand is proud to be recognized by Staffing Industry Analysts as a Top 25 Largest Industrial Staffing Firm in the U.S., a Top 100 Largest Staffing Firm in the U.S., a Top 100 Fastest Growing Staffing Firm in the U.S., and a winner of National Best and Brightest Companies to Work For.

“The compilation of progressive client companies, reliable field staff, and dedicated in-house employees, made Act I a great fit for an addition to the Trillium brand of companies. Originating as a single office operation ourselves 30 years ago, we were  attracted to the company culture and drive that Act I is today. We’re delighted to welcome the Act I staff, clients, and employees to our group and are eager to lend them access to the same support and tools that has allowed us to be recognized in the Top 25 Industrial Staffing Companies” states René Poch, CEO of Trillium.

The additional six offices acquired through Act I Staffing, will now compliment the three existing Trillium offices in the state of Ohio. With a continued focus on light industrial, clerical, and professional recruiting services, clients in the greater Columbus, Ohio area will receive additional recruiting support with access to Trillium’s existing talent pool of over 800,000 candidates.

The former Act I Staffing offices will continue to be led by Regional Vice President Rhonda Tisko. Rhonda brings over 20 years of staffing experience and will remain a vital component to leading the growth of the Columbus market.
