As the leading global staffing organization dedicated to creative, marketing, and digital talent, we're very proud to announce that we've been recognized as a Partner of the Year for TAPFIN, one of the world’s top Managed Service Providers of contingent workers. In addition to being chosen as the top-performing supplier filling Creative positions, we've also been selected as an Elite Partner for the $8 billion company. This honor designates Aquent as one of the top 20 vendors TAPFIN evaluated during the entire year across all categories.

"These awards are reflective of Aquent’s incredible achievements supporting TAPFIN U.S. client programs in 2015”, said TAPFIN Vice President Jamiel S. Saliba. “Aquent demonstrated its commitment by cultivating strong relationships with the TAPFIN team and being a dedicated partner, which were key factors in determining the winners.” The awards were also based on several additional factors, including a vendor’s ability to:

• Add/support new locations or skill-sets on request
• Share best practices
• Actively participate in supplier summits, advisory boards and committees
• Be responsive and reliable while working within program guidelines
• Effectively manage programs and know the clients' business

Paul Petersen, our Vice President for Global Staffing Solutions Development, added that “a tremendous amount of work has gone into achieving this goal, largely thanks to the efforts of Jennifer Cousins (Aquent Director of Staffing Solutions) and her team. We’re very proud to be recognized for it, and for offering a broad range of global staffing solutions to help companies add technical and creative expertise to their marketing and creative departments through unique initiatives like Aquent Studios and Aquent Gymnasium."
