[Read the original](https://www.franchising.com/news/20210323_spherion_expands_staffing_and_recruiting_services_in_salt_lake_city.html).* ## Story Building on nearly a decade and a half of local experience to become a bona fide staffing and recruiting leader in Salt Lake City, the new technology-focused office is opening with the support of the market’s Spherion franchise owner, Ron Zarbock. Since 2007, Zarbock has grown Spherion’s presence in the state and regionally now to seven offices along Utah’s Wasatch front and Idaho’s Treasure Valley. Leveraging its skills and knowledge of the Salt Lake City economy and its strong reputation, Spherion is expanding its reach into IT professional staffing with a team dedicated to the technology industry. The new office is opening in Downtown Salt Lake City at 204 E Harvey Milk Blvd, arriving as a positive signal for the Silicon Slopes’ workforce and the local economy. “IT employment is thriving in Salt Lake City and we’re in a fantastic position to serve both employers and skilled technology professionals. The new office brings fantastic local tech employment insights to the area to support client company and tech consultant career goals,” said Rebecca Rogers Tijerino, President of Spherion, who has worked closely with the Utah team to launch the new office. “Spherion’s reputation locally is extremely strong and now it will be there to help further the reputation of Silicon Slopes as a growing tech hub.” Jon Eborn will head the office. Eborn brings insider knowledge of the local technology industry, brandishing leadership experience and tight connections to CIOs and IT department heads throughout the market. He’s also well networked within the independent IT consultant scene in Salt Lake City. “Silicon Slopes has now firmly established itself as a global juggernaut in the computer technology world,” said Eborn, who serves as Director for the new Spherion technology office in Salt Lake City. “And, the community is gaining even more momentum as several big tech companies continue to move in. Our new IT staffing office will have the backing of Spherion’s national team while utilizing the expertise of our local specialists who have years of experience in the IT industry.” As a tech leader himself who has walked in the shoes of employers and candidates, Eborn understands the type of voids that may exist in local businesses and how to fill them with the right talent. Similarly, he easily connects with skilled IT professionals to ensure they are staffed in highly rewarding positions that are aligned with their skillset and career goals. In turn, he knows what it takes to build long-term relationships with both stakeholder groups – employers and IT consultants. “Jon has a unique understanding and knowledge of the IT industry in Salt Lake City that positions the team well for success,” said Zarbock, who has led his Spherion offices to seven straight company Presidents Awards honoring their performance among all 200-plus Spherion offices. “It’s clear he has an innate passion for creating meaningful connections with everyone he meets. Salt Lake City is a tech hub, and we look forward to supporting Jon in satisfying Silicon Slopes’ IT staffing needs.” ## Entities - Franchising.com (publication) - franchise growth (topic) - Business Services (sector) - Spherion (company) - staffing services (topic) - Salt Lake City (location) - office expansion (topic) - Rebecca Rogers Tijerino (person) - it professionals (topic) --- Originally reported by Franchising.com (https://www.franchising.com/news/20210323_spherion_expands_staffing_and_recruiting_services_in_salt_lake_city.html).
