Charleston, SC, January 10, 2023 – Today, Floyd Lee Locums—a concierge locums staffing firm in the healthcare industry—announced the latest developments on its executive team and in its impressive streak of talent acquisition. Effective immediately, the company is proud to announce the promotion of Joanna Van Oss to Vice President of Learning & Development. Van Oss is among the 83 employees who are rapidly expanding the business’s footprint year over year.
“I am more than thrilled to celebrate the promotion of Joanna Van Oss,” said Chief Operating Officer Nicole Burleson. “Jo started with us as a consultant and quickly became an integral part of building our organization. Her contributions have been invaluable. From designing our Learning Management System to training and coaching others, she is an amazing executive.”
Van Oss joined Floyd Lee Locums in 2021, immediately bringing more than 25 years of healthcare staffing experience to bear. Prior to joining the organization, she served in other senior leadership and executive level positions—most recently as Director of Operations at General Healthcare Resources (GHR), as well as Vice President of Operations at Supplemental Health Care.
In addition to this promotion, Floyd Lee Locums is also pleased to announce the continued expansion of its internal workforce. Having begun the company in 2017 with a roster of 12 employees, the organization continues to see double digit headcount growth year-over-year. In just the last tracking year, Floyd Lee Locums counts 83 talented employees among its crew of locums changemakers—with 52 added in the last year alone.
“I can’t say enough times and in as many ways as possible how blessed we’ve been as a company,” said Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Natasha Lee. “Healthcare is coming out of a really tough time. So, to be able to have continued growing from 12 people when we launched to 27 people when COVID struck—and now find ourselves at 83 team members over two years later…it’s incredible—and only possible because of the absolutely incredible staff who show up every day to do great work.”
For Floyd Lee Locums, that growth doesn’t just extend to its expanding team. Recently, the company also doubled up on recognition for its impressive bottom-line results. In 2022 reports, the company ranked as the 8th Fastest-Growing Staffing Firm in the U.S., as well as the 17th Largest Staffing Firm in Locums. Taken together with the employee and executive team growth, Floyd Lee Locums is truly an organization on the rise.
