PeopleReady is a national staffing agency with a branch in Owensboro. The company connects job seekers with flexible, temporary, and seasonal work opportunities across various industries. 

The organization operates under the TrueBlue company umbrella and has provided staffing solutions for more than 30 years. Its ultimate goal is to help employers and job seekers navigate the changing workforce landscape.

“PeopleReady just celebrated its 35th Anniversary. We have been established in Owensboro, KY, through different affiliations, such as Spartan, PMI, and now PeopleReady. Either way, we have always provided the same service for our customers and associates,” said Amanda Andersen with PeopleReady’s Owensboro branch.

Andersen said PeopleReady’s services are designed to support businesses while putting people to work, providing three types of staffing solutions: on-demand, temp-to-perm, and direct hiring. Each year, PeopleReady dispatches over 300,000 temporary associates nationwide, helping businesses succeed and grow by offering flexible workforce solutions.

“For over 30 years, PeopleReady has been helping businesses succeed and grow while putting people to work. Every year, we dispatch over 300,000 temporary associates on behalf of our customers,” Andersen said. “Whether you’re looking for job opportunities or seeking workers for your business, PeopleReady shares your passion for getting the job done right.”

PeopleReady’s Owensboro location is currently hiring for a clerical position, inviting detail-oriented and organized individuals to apply. The job post said ideal candidates should possess skills in data entry, customer service, and basic office software, such as Microsoft Word and Excel. Resumes can be submitted to [email protected] for consideration.

Andersen noted that the Owensboro branch is also undergoing changes to enhance its support for the local business community.

“Here at the Owensboro Branch, we are restructuring our staff, our processes, and our dedication to the businesses here in the community. We want to find customers and businesses that are willing to invest and take advantage of our services and expertise,” she said. “Our whole concept of what we can do really takes the pressure off business owners and companies in recruiting and finding the right individuals with little to no resources. We want to be that provider for them, connect with our community, and help in any way possible.”

With the holiday season underway, the local branch is also offering seasonal positions for those seeking additional income. 

The agency’s mobile platform, JobStack, allows job seekers to view and apply for jobs in real-time, track assignments, and receive ratings to increase their visibility for future opportunities. The JobStack app is available for download, or applicants can visit the Owensboro branch at 3427 Frederica Street to learn more.
