Spire makes SIA’s List of Fastest Growing Staffing Firms for 2024

We’re thrilled to make SIA’s list for a third year in a row! Up to the #6 slot with over 112% CAGR and $35.3M in revenue for 2023.

A laser focus on customers is another tactic the fastest-growing firms are taking to ensure their growth when markets pick up. Michael Jacoutot, the founder of Spire Healthcare, says it’s a matter of finding customers and taking a consultative approach.

“We don’t consider ourselves in the healthcare staffing business,” Jacoutot says. “We’re in the customer business.”

Spire ranked No. 6 on this year’s list with 112.2% CAGR and $35.3 million in 2023 revenue.

The company works with multiple stakeholders within client organizations to solve problems from different perspectives, whether it’s a concern of HR or of a chief nursing officer. The company takes a three-by-three approach where it matches three internal employees to stakeholders at healthcare organizations to identify where the firm can help them.

Jacoutot is optimistic about the healthcare staffing industry, despite the current difficult market. 

“The pendulum has swung far away from agencies and more towards internal staff and sign-on bonuses and internal programs that provide flexibility to the nurse,” he says. “But at the end of the day, those are very unwieldy and expensive for the hospitals to maintain.”
