Vaco by Highspring Included on Two Prominent Staffing Industry Analysts’ Lists for Global Impact and Scale in Talent Solutions

Highspring is among the 2025 Largest Staffing Firms in Canada and the 2025 Largest Direct Hire Firms Globally.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – October 15, 2025 – Highspring, a leading global professional services organization, today announced its inclusion on two prestigious lists from Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) — the 2025 Largest Staffing Firms in Canada and the 2025 Largest Direct Hire Firms Globally. Highspring sees these rankings as a demonstration of the firm’s scale, performance, and growing impact in the competitive talent ecosystem. 

SIA’s global direct hire report lists the top 50 firms that achieved over $19.3 million (€17.8 million) in direct hire revenue last year. Together, these companies account for 10% of the global market. 

“As the world of work evolves, our approach to talent must evolve with it,” says Kevin Witt, President of Vaco by Highsping. “Our inclusion in SIA’s lists reflects our ability to pair our diverse set of expertise with intentionality in a market of uncertainty. Every engagement is about more than filling a role — it’s about giving clients the workforce advantage they need while helping people advance their careers. That dual focus is what drives our growth and defines our success.” 

The SIA report on Canadian staffing leaders lists 35 firms that each generated at least CAD 50 million in staffing revenue in 2024. Collectively, these companies represent 83% of the Canadian staffing market. 

“We feel our inclusion on these lists reflects more than scale — it highlights the resiliency and people-first approach that define our work,” says Tom Turpin, Vaco by Highspring Executive Partner based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. “By staying flexible and focused on the needs of our clients and candidates, we are committed to helping organizations meet today’s challenges and prepare for tomorrow’s opportunities.”
