This partnership will increase the local capacity of IAJVS member agencies by providing job seekers with valuable career opportunities within AlliedBarton. Combined with AlliedBarton's reputation as a respected employer and industry leader, ongoing career opportunities and flexible schedules make AlliedBarton an ideal employer for those seeking quality jobs. IAJVS will help to prepare job candidates for assessment, screening, career exploration, training and employment at AlliedBarton in positions including Security Officer, Shift Supervisor, Site Supervisor, Account Manager, District Manager and support personnel. The partnership will capitalize on each organization's experience, flexibility and record of success in placing workers on career paths.

"Partnering with organizations such as IAJVS allows us to identify high quality candidates in the communities we serve," explained Jim Gillece, AlliedBarton Senior Vice President for Human Capital Management and Chief People Officer. "This national agreement creates a ready resource for our network of recruiting managers across the country. Our quality commitment includes providing carefully recruited, screened and trained leaders who are selected specifically for each client site and can help maintain a safe and secure environment. Relationships such as this help us accomplish that while supporting the communities we serve."

Both organizations regard this collaboration as a mutually beneficial partnership. AlliedBarton and IAJVS are responding to the recent economic downturn which has resulted in job losses within many communities across the country. As a result, there are numerous people seeking employment with a quality company that can provide career opportunities. AlliedBarton and IAJVS are committed to providing employment opportunities for those in need.
