JSG Expands In Canada

CALGARY, Alberta, Oct.1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson Service Group Inc. (JSG) and its subsidiary JSG Professional Services ULC are proud to announce business expansion plans in Canada.  A Calgary, Alberta office supported by satellite offices in Vancouver, British Columbia, Edmonton, Alberta, Toronto, Ontario and Montreal, Quebec has opened to meet the demand for engineering and technical staffing services by firms in the Aerospace, Automotive, Infrastructure, Mass Transit, Oil & Gas and  Telecommunication industry verticals.  

Founded in 1984, JSG has provided specialized staffing services including contract temporary, temporary to hire and direct hire services to Fortune 500 companies in various industries and other businesses located throughout the United States.  JSG serves clients through a nationwide branch network. Its largest offices are in Atlanta and Chicago.

Earlier this year, JSG celebrated its 30^th year in business by being named by Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) to three of its prominent lists: Largest U.S. Staffing Firms, Fastest-Growing U.S. Staffing Firms and Largest U.S. Engineering Staffing Firms. Only a limited number of firms were named to all three lists.

Greg Thullner, who has worked in the Engineering/IT Services sector in Canada, the United States and internationally for over 25 years, will head the expansion.  He commented: "The demand for professional engineering and technical services has been increasing worldwide. JSG has capitalized on these favorable industry demands, evidenced by being named to the SIA lists. It is a logical progression to expand offices in Canada to continue to capitalize on those trends and more fully address cross border professional service opportunities that exist between Canada and the United States."

Concurrent with its office openings, JSG personnel will be attending the annual 2014 International Pipeline Conference & Exposition in Calgary. "Attendance at this conference will be an excellent way to inform firms of JSG's outstanding service capabilities," said Mr. Thullner.
