hire talent

You need employees, not applicants. People, not resumes.

Technology finds resumes. We find talent. As an extension of your HR team, we source, screen, and match people with your open roles — taking the time to understand your goals, your team, and your culture before we ever send a name your way.

Temporary & Contract Staffing

A project ramps up, someone goes on leave, a deadline moves up. We place vetted professionals quickly — for last-minute, short-term, and project-based needs — from a ready network of people we already know.

  • Last-minute & short-term coverage
  • Project-based contract teams
  • Coverage from a few days to a full season

Direct Hire

We learn how your team works and what "right" looks like beyond the job description, then find the person who fits the job, the culture, and the long haul — so your new hire is still thriving a year from now.

  • Matched on culture, not just skills
  • Roles across all ten practice areas
  • By your side through offer & onboarding

Payroll Services

Already found the right person? Bring them on through us and we'll carry the HR-to-payroll administration for your contract employees — onboarding paperwork and paychecks included — so your team doesn't have to.

  • HR-to-payroll admin, handled for you
  • Onboarding paperwork off your plate
  • You keep the person, we keep the paperwork

about us

Meet Sarah Piper

Sarah Piper founded S Piper Staffing on a simple belief: recruiting works better when it's personal. She built the firm around the idea that a great match is never just about a resume — it's about knowing the person, the team, and what makes both of them thrive.

Sarah's approach starts with listening. She takes the time to truly know her clients and her candidates — their goals, their values, their culture — and matches talented people whose interests and values align with the companies they join. It's why she thinks of herself as a modern-day matchmaker: the right introduction, made with care, can change a career and a company at the same time.

That relationship-first style shapes everything the firm does. S Piper Staffing is a woman-owned, minority-owned firm headquartered in Seattle, WA, providing permanent and temporary staffing solutions to clients across the country — from startups to large public companies, and everything in between.

For our clients, we're an extension of your HR team — sourcing, screening, and matching people with urgent job openings. Through our consultancy partners, professionals we've sourced have supported engagements at companies like Amazon, T-Mobile, and Microsoft. For our candidates, we're a trusted guide for navigating career choices: advice, coaching, and connections are what we do.

Our goal is not to meet a hiring quota. We focus on meeting a real person's need. We listen, understand, care, and connect — and we believe in servant leadership.
