Companies increasingly recognize the benefits of working with a staffing service for a variety of challenges. Some rely on AdvantaStaff to meet seasonal or inconsistent staffing needs, while others have just moved to a new market or have full-time openings that are particularly difficult to fill. We succeed in satisfying our customers by taking a tailored approach that is not simply about filling jobs, but is about responding to a company’s specific challenges and goals — and ultimately building an effective, productive workforce.

Benefit from a Flexible and Agile Workforce
Thanks to our best practices and deep bench of experience, we are equipped to successfully fill positions for all skill levels, from reliable warehouse help and talented administrative support to trusted, experienced supervisors. As our customers will attest, we have the agility to quickly fill openings for seasonal surges and time-limited projects, as well as longer-term positions. That means you can scale up and down as appropriate, aligning your workforce to suit the workload and save on costs. And you always have the option to bring staff on full-time if you find they’d make a great fit.
Working with a staffing company has the added benefit of reducing the potential for layoffs. You create a “buffer” by staffing employees who understand that their employer is AdvantaStaff and know their assignment can end at any point. With a mutual understanding that the project will come to an end, you spare everyone the potential of disappointment when the contract time period is over.
Ultimately, you are also reaping the rewards of our unmatched reputation. In our 20 years of doing this work, AdvantaStaff has made a name in the market as the staffing service trusted to work with some of the region’s largest companies. If you’re in the Greater Richmond region, chances are you may have a friend or relative who has had a positive experience working with us, with many having gained regular, full-time employment with our customers.
See Significant Time and Cost Savings
You have better uses for your time than sorting through stacks of job applications and an inbox full of emails in response to multiple job postings. AdvantaStaff takes all of that tedious, time-consuming work off your plate. We apply our proven approach to narrow down the candidates and find the best fit, freeing you up to focus on the challenges and strategic initiatives that demand your expertise.
We handle the employee’s salary, benefits and expenses – like liability insurance and screening costs – so you don’t have to. This ultimately saves you money, especially if the needs are short-term. Depending on staffing levels, AdvantaStaff helps companies control costs by providing on-site account management. We excel at the critical role of managing a contingent workforce, taking on tasks like new employee orientation, daily safety briefings and job assignments, and assistance with time tracking.
Because we know the market as well as anyone, we know the competitive pay rates. We can advise on appropriate pay rates for positions, ensuring you get the employees you need with consideration for your bottom line. And unlike online recruiting services, you only pay for our services if we place an employee in your open position.
Gain a local partner with a deep well of resources
With our pulse on the Central Virginia market, AdvantaStaff can actively recruit for any skill set, homing in on just the right employees. Unlike other services that claim to serve your specific market, AdvantaStaff is a truly local presence. We prioritize getting to know, personally, the employees and the companies we work with, meeting candidates in person and touring company facilities to better understand needs.
As part of the Wauford Group, we are very familiar with the full range of manufacturing and distribution positions.

The overarching commitment unifying each of these benefits is AdvantaStaff’s assurance that our staffing plan will work for you today, tomorrow, and well into the future. In business operations, a relationship-based, tailored, and organic approach will outperform a static response every time. We are grateful for the opportunity to work in partnership with our customers for outcomes that serve all stakeholders.
