Founder and Managing Director Paul Evans, “P.J Staffing’s mission is to provide great people into great roles and to provide great service to our clients across Yorkshire and the UK. Our current service provides flexible staffing solutions across London and Yorkshire, expanding into the Midlands in summer 2025, supplying a range of clients from local hotels and restaurants, and award-winning racecourses, conference centres, and festivals. P.J Staffing supports these clients with a range of flexible and reliable staffing.” Setting off on its journey, previously known as CP Staffing, before rebranding to P.J Staffing ltd. in 2024, this temporary staffing agency has been using its team members’ many years of combined experience to shape a new age in the industry. Paul enthuses, “Our people in the business have walked the walk and have plentiful experience within the sectors we work within, offering a consultative and supportive service. The team knows what our clients look for in not just skill set, but culture. We offer our candidates the traditional ways of recruitment, with the personal touch, knowing our candidates is essential to placing them into roles, whilst technology is changing the world, you simply cannot beat having traditional conversations with your people.” Although, to many, the overwhelming impact of COVID is a thing of the past, we know that the post-COVID world is much different to how it once was before the pandemic. Paul shares, “The recruitment market is forever changing, post covid, there was a surge in demand for flexible catering and hospitality staff as high percentage left the industry due to the industry being hardest hit, going into 20232024, venues started recruiting and enlarging their own flexible staffing pool which led to a decrease in requirements to staffing agencies.” This led PJ Staffing to adapt our business model very quickly, offering a more sustainable and streamlined approach for business’ who still rely on staffing industries. By rebranding and restructuring our business, this allowed us to provide a more industry relevant offering to companies which encompasses a socially and environmentally responsible service. As we step into 2025, Paul has every confidence that “the market will grow, but not without its challenges, with the recent budget announcement with both national living wage and Employers National Insurance increases, this is likely to put a strain on not only the recruitment sector but also the Catering & Hospitality industry, as costs ultimately will be passed back onto the consumer!” With plans to scale up this year, including its introduction of staffing to the commercial and logistics and warehousing sectors, P.J Staffing will be connecting with companies working within some of the fastest growing industries with their award-winning services. Additionally, P J Staffing has recently obtained the certificate of assurance and became a certified recruitment Business partner through the British institute of recruiters whilst Paul and his team are also certified members– which will further solidify its presence and push it further into the forefront against its competitors in such a broad market. P.J Staffing’s reputation in the temporary staffing industry will only fuel more connections, partnerships, and success as its team continues to work together in a seamless manner. Paul comments, “P.J Staffing Internal culture feels like a family, where new groups are formed, new friends are made, and lives are turned around.
