More about Sterling St James LLC

The company is small, with fewer than 10 employees and estimated revenue between $1M and $5M USD. While the firm's primary focus is manufacturing and engineering recruitment, its job listings include healthcare positions such as a Clinical Research Nurse Manager in Peoria, Illinois, and a Pediatrics Medical Assistant in Warden, Washington, indicating some activity in healthcare staffing. Nurses should understand that Sterling St James is not a healthcare facility or hospital; it is a staffing intermediary that places candidates into client organizations. Working directly for Sterling St James would mean employment as a recruiter or internal staff member, not as a clinical nurse. Healthcare professionals placed through the agency would be employed by the client organization, not by Sterling St James itself. The Clinical Research Nurse Manager role in Peoria focuses on oncology-related research, clinical trials development, regulatory compliance, strategic partnership building, and team management.

The organization states a commitment to 'precision and quality' in recruitment, leveraging 40 years of industry experience. Their stated mission is to connect talent with employers through high-quality, high-speed talent acquisition, with a focus on matching candidates beyond job descriptions using the latest recruitment technology.
