Employee Solutions Acquires Bridge Employment Services of Oklahoma

BROKEN ARROW, Okla. - Nov. 18, 2014 - PRLog -- Employee Solutions, one of the fastest-growing industrial staffing companies in Texas and Oklahoma, has acquired Bridge Employment Services of Broken Arrow. It is the third office in Oklahoma for Employee Solutions.

Bridge Employment Services, founded in 2007, has focused on industrial recruiting in the Tulsa metropolitan area. Its target markets are closely aligned with those of Employee Solutions, which made it such a good fit, according to David Bristol, CEO of Employee Solutions.

"Everywhere we operate, our strongest growth is among light industrial and distribution companies," Bristol said. "We see a lot of potential in Oklahoma in these areas, especially with its strong economy, and establishing another office in the Tulsa area enhances our ability to serve this region."

The office location will remain at 824 North Sycamore Avenue in Broken Arrow, and Employee Solutions has named Judi Moore as Operations Manager for the office, which is staffed by four employees.

Employee Solutions already has offices in Tulsa and Muskogee. It opened the Tulsa office in mid-2013, and the Muskogee office in early 2014.

"There is a real advantage to merging with a company that has the resources to enhance relationships with both clients and associates," said Ray Roberson, CEO and co-founder of Bridge Employment Services. "Employee Solutions offers attractive benefits to associates, so it can attract the right employees who will be a good fit for our clients."

Moving into 2015, benefits – particularly compliant healthcare benefits – will be a big issue for companies using the services of staffing companies. Employee Solutions has established benefit programs that allow its clients to adhere to all federal requirements while providing a solid level of coverage for associates.

In connection with the acquisition, Roberson has been named Regional Sales Manager for Oklahoma, focusing on clients in northeast Oklahoma and on developing additional clients all over the state. Before starting Bridge Employment Services in 2007, Roberson was vice president for Personnel Consultants and was an executive with Express Personnel Services.

Employee Solutions has been named to the Inc. 5000 fastest-growing private companies list for three years in a row, and this year stood at number 3174 on the list, with 110 percent growth over the past three years.

Employee Solutions is expert at managing large contingent workforces, particularly through its innovative on-site management programs.  Its knowledgeable professionals can help companies devise staffing plans tailored precisely to their needs. In addition to the new location, Employee Solutions has offices in Dallas-Fort Worth area, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio.
