Staffing veteran acquires Snelling’s Greenville office

A staffing industry veteran has taken over the leadership of an Upstate company.

Snelling, a member of the HireQuest Global Talent Network, has announced new local ownership in two key markets, which includes a South Carolina location.

Staffing industry veteran Jarrett Lindon has acquired the Snelling Greenville and Snelling Lexington, Ky., offices, bringing more than two decades of hands-on experience and client service expertise to both communities, according to a news release.

Lindon began his career in staffing in 1999 with Trojan Labor before moving to HireQuest corporate, where he spent over a decade leading National Account Sales. His leadership helped grow partnerships with some of the country’s most recognizable employers, the release stated. After a two-year sabbatical following his retirement from corporate life, Lindon was drawn back to the local branch level, the place where his career began.

“The local office is where it all started for me,” said Lindon in the release. “This business has always been about people, helping great companies grow and giving hard-working individuals a path to success. Getting back to that community connection is what excites me most.”

With family roots in Kentucky, the Lexington location offers a meaningful return to familiar ground, while Greenville’s strong and consistent manufacturing growth provides an exciting opportunity to serve one of the region’s most dynamic markets, the release stated.

“We’re pleased to welcome Jarrett back into the HireQuest network as a Snelling owner,” said Rick Hermanns, President and CEO of HireQuest, in the release. “His proven leadership, deep industry knowledge, and commitment to client success make him a tremendous asset to both our company and the communities his offices serve.”

The Snelling Greenville location is at 406 N. Pleasantburg Drive. Phone number is: (864) 331-2079.
