New West Coast Offices for 24Seven

New York–based employment agency 24Seven Inc. has opened a Seattle office to supply the region with fashion-industry staff and other creative talent.

The agency specializes in providing workers in the areas of fashion, marketing, advertising, retail, beauty, home furnishings and entertainment.

Vice President Tiffany Bulowski will manage the new office, located at 1525 Fourth Ave., suite 200. Initial clients include Nordstrom, Eddie Bauer, T-Mobile, the Seattle Times, GLG, Zaaz and Publicis.

Bulowski said the region has a strong need for creative talent because of migrating businesses from other states as well as a strong existing employment base. Seattle is home to companies such as Nordstrom, Cutter & Buck, Amazon.com, R.E.I., Microsoft, Eddie Bauer and Costco.

24Seven now has offices in Los Angeles; Orange County, Calif.; New York; San Francisco; and London. In addition, the company recently closed on the acquisition of New York–based rival Gromwell Group LLC.

The company provides customers with candidates from all aspects of the fashion and retail industries, including sales associates, managers, warehouse staff, seamstresses and cutting-room workers. The candidates are pre-screened through in-depth interviews, portfolio assessments and reference checks. 24Seven is also planning to expand in Los Angeles with a new office in the Los Angeles Fashion District.
