Turner Staffing Group Acquires Zemlock, Expands Industrial Staffing Footprint Across the Southwestern U.S.

BLOOMINGTON, IN — Turner Staffing Group, a leading provider of staffing solutions for the mining, construction, and industrial sectors, is thrilled to announce the acquisition of Zemlock Heavy Industrial Staffing Services (“Zemlock”), a firm known for their industrial expertise, tailored solutions, and long-term partnerships across the southwestern United States. This strategic expansion enhances Turner’s ability to connect talent with opportunity across an even broader range of industries and geographies. The acquisition expands their western footprint with a new Arizona headquarters and grows their roster of talent in electrical distribution, energy production, manufacturing, aerospace, and logistics.

Turner Staffing Group has built a reputation for delivering customized talent solutions that optimize workforce performance and support clients’ long-term success nationwide. With deep roots in mining and continued growth in industrial staffing strategy, Turner leads with innovation while delivering proven processes for recruiting, training, and retaining skilled professionals.

Thomas Haun, President of Turner Staffing Group, shared the organization’s excitement about this new chapter in their continued expansion: “Bringing Zemlock into the Turner family represents a pivotal moment in our trajectory. We’re thrilled to unite our strengths with a team that has built deep relationships with the industry’s leading mining operations. Their proven track record amplifies our core mission, connecting exceptional talent with career-defining opportunities. Together, we deliver an unmatched combination of expertise and comprehensive workforce solutions that the heavy industrial sector demands.”

The integration of Zemlock into Turner Staffing Group expands the company’s footprint in key markets and enables Turner to offer clients an even richer suite of staffing services, enhanced by Zemlock’s sector-specific expertise and collaborative approach. The combined team will further strengthen Turner’s ability to support workforce challenges across multiple industries.

Todd Zemlock, founder of Zemlock and now Vice President at Turner Staffing Group, commented on the milestone: “Joining Turner Staffing Group is an exciting next step for our team and our clients. For more than two decades, we have focused on building meaningful relationships and delivering complex staffing solutions. Turner’s commitment to operational excellence and people-first approach mirrored our values. Together we are well-positioned to expand our reach and create new opportunities for job seekers and industry leaders alike.”

With Zemlock’s team joining Turner Staffing Group, Turner is poised to accelerate its growth plans, deliver exceptional service to a wider client base, and continue bridging the gap between talented professionals and industry-leading employers.

“We’re leading a fundamental shift in how mining companies build their workforce,” said Haun. “Traditional recruitment models have failed this industry for too long. We’re delivering direct access to top-tier talent through a human-centered methodology that puts relationships and results first. This isn’t just filling positions, we’re rebuilding the industry’s approach to human capital from the ground up.”

Built on their foundation in the mining industry and a continuing relationship with Turner Mining Group, Turner Staffing Group has evolved into a workforce partner serving a wide range of industrial sectors. The addition of Zemlock further extends this reach, strengthening Turner Staffing Group’s capabilities and positioning the combined team to support continued growth with more expertise and broader market access, while retaining the same commitment to connecting people with opportunity.

Turner Staffing Group distinguishes itself through deep industry expertise that goes beyond simply understanding the job description. The company’s comprehensive understanding of the sectors it serves enables precise candidate matching, driving retention and workforce stability. By maintaining a pipeline of ready-to-deploy talent, Turner eliminates costly delays and challenges, delivering the right professionals exactly when clients need them. With scalable hiring practices, nationwide reach, and streamlined processes, Turner stays ahead of evolving talent demands by providing tailored solutions when traditional hiring methods fall short.

A commitment to excellence and strategic workforce development remains at the forefront of every service Turner Staffing Group provides, and this acquisition marks a key step in broadening capabilities and strengthening solutions for today’s evolving labor market. Turner Staffing Group continues to expand the company’s capabilities, providing mining, construction, and industrial clients with an even deeper pool of skilled professionals.
