Built on the principle of providing superior customer service to both clients and candidates, Placers led the Delaware staffing industry for over 20 years.

The world of work is continuously evolving, and businesses need a workforce partner that is never late to the game. Driven by the same entrepreneurial rush as his father, Alan’s son, Chris Burkhard, has propelled Placers into a new era with Total Talent Solutions.

Placers’ Total Talent Solutions provide businesses with workforce support that evolves with their needs. Whether businesses are seeking a few temp workers, direct hire talent, an entire contingent workforce, or a little of everything, Placers delivers.

Today, just as yesterday, Placers is a well-known name throughout Delaware and its surrounding areas. When businesses need talent, and talent needs good work, they look for the familiar orange letters of Placers, and the exceptional support they know waits on the other side.

Our story began close to fifty years ago in 1972 by way of a young entrepreneur, Alan Burkhard. Frustrated with the status quo and doing things because “that’s how they’ve always been done,” Alan knew he had to channel his energy into an outlet that would truly make a difference.

Maybe it was the entrepreneurial spirit of his father and grandfather running through his veins, a dash of mad genius, or a little of both, but when Alan identified a stark gap between the talent Delaware businesses needed and what they could find, he set out to change the staffing game – Placers was born.
