Rural Sourcing Named to National Best and Brightest Companies to Work List

ATLANTA (September 27, 2022) — For five years in a row, Rural Sourcing (RSI) has been named one of the Best and Brightest Companies to Work for in the Nation. This award recognizes companies that deliver exceptional human resource practices.

Rural Sourcing has continued its commitment to its colleagues during a time of incredible growth for the company. In November 2021, RSI announced the opening of two new development centers in Buffalo, N.Y. and Baton Rouge, La. and shortly thereafter hired Chief People Officer Robin Stenzel to drive the company’s colleague growth and well-being programs.

“At Rural Sourcing, we have three pillars: colleagues, clients and communities. It is intentional that we list colleagues first,” said Robin Stenzel, Chief People Officer at Rural Sourcing. “Our colleagues drive success for our clients, give back wholeheartedly to their communities and are the reason for our continued growth. Creating an environment where they’re happy and engaged in their careers is of the utmost importance.”

The national winning companies were assessed by an independent research firm which reviewed a number of key measures relative to other nationally recognized winners. With over 20 years of experience conducting the Best and Brightest competitions, the National Association for Business Resources (NABR) have identified numerous best Human Resource practices and provided benchmarking for companies that continue to be leaders in employment standards.

“These 2022 winning organizations have stood out during unpredictable times and have proven they are an employer of choice. They continue to keep the needs of their employees first and provide perks that include development, wellbeing, work-life balance, rewards and recognition. In addition, these winning companies offer a fantastic work culture and workplace environment that attracts and retains superior employees”, said Jennifer Kluge, President and CEO of NABR and The Best and Brightest Program.
