Industrial & skilled-trades staffing Est. 2025

Crews that show up. Work that pays.

We staff the trades, the plant floor, the yard and the road. Welders, operators, drivers, mechanics, laborers. We know which tickets matter, we check them against the issuing body, and we put the right hands on the job.

01 Why we exist

A no-show costs you
the whole day.

Most agencies send a body and hope. The card is expired, the forklift ticket was never checked, nobody asked whether the guy has a ride at 5am. You find out at shift start, with the line down and a crew standing around.

We do the boring part first. Tickets and cards verified against whoever issued them, work authorization verified on the I-9, shift and rate agreed in writing so nobody is surprised on payday. Then we call on day one, day seven and day thirty to make sure it held.

Anyone can send a résumé. We send someone who turns up and can do the work.

03 How it runs

What happens after you call

  1. Call

    Tell us the job, the shift, the rate and the tickets it needs. Ten minutes on the phone beats a week of résumés, and it means nobody wastes a trip.

  2. Match

    We go to our own bench first — people we have already placed and already checked. If the bench is thin we recruit for it rather than sending whoever is nearest.

  3. Verify

    Trade licenses, welding certs and CDL class and endorsements checked against the issuing body, with the MVR pulled on every driver. Forklift and aerial lift evaluations are employer-specific under 1910.178(l), so we keep the training records and hand them to you rather than pretend there is a registry to check. Work authorization verified on the I-9, plus background and drug screening where the site requires it.

  4. On site

    Boots on the ground when we said. We call you after the first shift, and again at the end of the first week. If it is not working we redeploy and you are billed only for the hours worked.

04 Hiring

Hire it the way the work runs.

  • Contract

    Hourly, our W-2

    Cover a ramp, a shutdown or a gap. Workers stay on our payroll — we carry taxes and workers' compensation, you approve the hours.

  • Contract-to-hire

    No conversion fee

    Work them on our books first, up to 520 hours. Convert whenever you are ready — during the trial or after it — and there is no conversion fee either way.

  • Direct hire

    Fee on start

    Permanent placement for foremen, leads and maintenance staff. Fee is payable on the start date and carries a 90-day replacement guarantee.

  • On-site managed

    Volume & shutdowns

    For big ramps: a Beacon coordinator works out of your facility, running the schedule and covering call-offs before they cost you a shift.

  • Payroll transfer

    You found them

    You sourced the person, we employ them. Payroll, workers' compensation, ACA tracking and I-9 handled on our side.

05 Straight deal

Plain terms.
Written down.

This is the whole deal, in the order it matters. If we break one of these, say so to melo@beaconcareerservices.com and it reaches the person who can fix it.

  • Rate up front

    The hourly, the shift and the overtime rules in writing before you accept — including the differential if there is one.

  • Workers pay nothing

    Not a fee, not a deposit, not a charge for boots or training. Employers pay us. That is the whole model.

  • Paid weekly

    Direct deposit every week. No pay-card fees taken out of your check.

  • PPE on us

    Hard hat, high-vis vest and safety glasses issued when you start an assignment.

  • Fair chance

    We weigh a record against what the job actually requires, in line with EEOC guidance and applicable fair-chance law.

  • English or Spanish

    Intake, safety briefings and onboarding paperwork in both. Formularios y capacitación de seguridad disponibles en español.

  • Veterans

    We translate military occupational codes into the civilian tickets a site will recognize.

  • Ask and it is arranged

    Need an adjustment to interview or to work a role? Ask. No paperwork, and it does not affect your shot at the job.

  • 48 hrsTypical time to first crew on site
  • 90 daysReplacement guarantee, direct hire
  • W-2Payroll, workers' comp, ACA, I-9
  • OSHA10 & 30, construction and general industry
  • $0Charged to workers, ever

06 In their words

From the floor and the front office

  • Shutdown got moved up and we needed twenty-two millwrights with four days notice. Beacon had eighteen on site Monday and the rest by Wednesday. Every card checked before they walked through the gate.

  • Last outfit I worked through took a cut off my check and never told me. These guys gave me the rate and the OT rules on paper before I said yes, and that's exactly what landed Friday.

    6G Combo Welder Placed 2025 // Nashville, TN
  • What I care about is whether people turn up at 6am. Three months in, one no-show. I have never had that with an agency before.

07 Questions

Asked often.

What does it cost to hire?

Contract staff are billed at an hourly rate that already includes payroll taxes, workers' compensation and our margin — one number, no add-ons at the end of the month. Direct hire is a percentage of first-year pay, agreed in writing before we start and payable only when someone actually starts.

Do workers pay anything?

No. Never, for any reason. If someone claiming to be with Beacon asks you for money, it is not us — email melo@beaconcareerservices.com and we will deal with it.

How fast can you get people on site?

For most industrial and warehouse roles, inside 48 hours of an agreed intake. Licensed trades and CDL positions take longer because the verification takes longer — we will tell you that on the call rather than after.

Can you cover a shutdown or a seasonal ramp?

Yes. For volume work we run an on-site managed model: a Beacon coordinator works from your floor handling scheduling, attendance, redeployment and turnover reporting, so your supervisors stay on production instead of staffing.

What tickets do you actually verify?

OSHA 10 and 30, forklift and aerial lift certification, CDL class and endorsements plus the MVR, welding tickets, and state trade licenses — each checked against the issuing body rather than taken off a résumé. We keep the file and can hand it to your safety team.

What if someone doesn't work out?

On contract, tell us and we redeploy — you pay only for hours actually worked. On a direct hire, if the placement ends inside ninety days we run the search again at no additional fee.

Do you place people with a record?

Yes. We weigh any record against the genuine requirements of the specific job, in line with EEOC guidance and applicable fair-chance law. It is never an automatic bar, and we are straight with people about the sites where a legal restriction does apply.
