The "Growth Pain" Specialist

Most agencies have never managed a P&L or a warehouse. We have. We understand the specific chaos of scaling a startup because we've lived it.

The "First 10" Employees

The first hires define your culture. We identify generalists with high agency who can build processes from scratch—people who thrive in ambiguity.

Fleet & Field Ops

Hiring for the real world is harder than hiring for Slack. We specialize in finding Warehouse Leads, Fleet Managers, and Logistics Coordinators.

Operational Leadership

Need a COO, Head of Ops, or GM? We identify leaders who understand P&L responsibility and efficiency.

Flexible Engagement Models

We align our incentives with your runway. Choose the model that fits your stage of growth.

Our DNA

Recruiting the talent we wish we had.

Wilkins Staffing was founded by Gino Wilkins to solve a problem he faced for 9+ years: Traditional recruiters rarely understand the speed of a high-growth startup.

Our vetting process is built on Gino's experience as the first in-office employee at Kyte, helping launch Spin in multiple cities, and driving $11.2M in savings at Cruise. We know what "good" looks like because we've done the job.
