The HT Group, which now includes more than 30 full-time staff, has locations in Austin, Beaumont, Orange and Port Arthur. The firm was founded as HT Staffing in 2001 to meet the region’s needs for traditional temporary staffing in administrative, light industrial, manufacturing and similar fields. As Austin grew and evolved, so did The HT Group. The firm changed its name from HT Staffing to The HT Group in 2014 to reflect the full breadth of human capital solutions it now offers.

“The HT Group has grown between 20 to 30 percent each year since 2009 and we’re excited to see this rapid growth continue,” says Mark Turpin, CEO/Founder of The HT Group. “As Austin continues to thrive in technology, healthcare, and light industrial and as areas like Beaumont, Orange and Port Arthur make strides in hiring, we’ve grown as well. We’ve served the business community in these areas for many years and look forward to strengthening our dedication and commitment to the local and national businesses we serve here by growing alongside them.”
