Winston Staffing

What Winston Staffing does

Winston Resources, LLC (operating as Winston Staffing) is a privately held, family-owned staffing and recruitment firm founded in 1967 and headquartered in New York City. The company operates through eight wholly owned divisions covering the full spectrum of workforce solutions: Winston Personnel (direct hire), Winston Staffing Services (temporary staffing), Winston Medical Staffing Services (healthcare staffing under Joint Commission Gold Seal of Approval), Win-Temp (payrolling services for 1-1,000 employees across 50 states), Winston Professional (high-level contract staffing), Winston Advertising (recruitment advertising), Winston Technology® (IT staffing with a proprietary ATS), and Fisher Todd (executive recruiting). The company serves employer clients primarily in the Tri-State area (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut) through four branch offices, though its Locum Tenens division markets nationwide physician and advanced-practice coverage.

The firm is led by the Kaye family — Sy Kaye as Chairman, with Todd Kaye and Gregg Kaye as Presidents — and runs on a sales-led, relationship-based go-to-market model in which 100+ internal staffing specialists and account executives engage employers directly to source temporary, temp-to-hire, and permanent placements. Winston's technology layer centers on W.I.P.S. (Winston Information & Procurement System), an internal platform for managing candidate orders, assignments, invoicing, timecards, and payment tracking, supplemented by a standard ATS for IT staffing. Revenue is generated almost entirely through fee-per-placement and contract staffing billings to employer clients, with complementary income from payrolling services and recruitment advertising. Customer segments span 16+ verticals including healthcare, IT, banking, insurance, legal, accounting, real estate, and publishing, though healthcare — credentialed through JCAHO — is the most heavily evidenced vertical in the source data.
