Patrice & Associates, a prominent name in hospitality staffing and executive recruitment, has expanded its presence in Georgia with the introduction of a new franchisee in Marietta. Princess Wells, who previously had a 14-year career as a physical therapist, is now leading the new office which opened earlier this month.
“We are thrilled to welcome Princess Wells to the Patrice & Associates family,” stated CEO Brian Miller. “Her expertise and passion for connecting great talent with exceptional opportunities align perfectly with our mission. We are confident that this new territory will play a pivotal role in supporting the staffing needs of businesses in Georgia.”
The Marietta location joins over 175 Patrice & Associates offices across North America, strengthening its position as a leading staffing franchise. This move highlights the company's dedication to providing personalized recruitment services across various sectors such as hospitality, construction, retail, and technology.
“We see tremendous potential in this new market,” commented Wells. “There is a strong demand for quality recruitment services here, and I am excited to introduce Patrice & Associates’ comprehensive staffing solutions to local businesses. Our focus will be on connecting them with top-tier candidates who can drive their success.”
As part of its growth strategy, Patrice & Associates is integrating advanced technologies like AI-powered tools and business intelligence reporting into its recruitment process to enhance efficiency and accuracy.
“The level of support, training and mentoring Patrice & Associates provides, along with their core values, drew me to this brand,” said Wells. “The opportunity to help people is central to their mission, which resonated with me.”
Looking forward, Patrice & Associates aims to award 20 additional franchise licenses across North America by the end of 2024 while emphasizing diversity and veteran participation.
