About Sheila Greco

As the founder and CEO of SGA Talent, a recruiting firm based in Saratoga, I have harnessed the power of networking and seizing opportunities throughout my career. My journey began in bond trading in New York City but took a pivotal turn after a casual conversation suggested I explore recruitment—a field that ignited my passion. I launched SGA Talent in 1989, initially as a research house, and have since evolved our offerings to include executive recruiting and staffing for major events, such as Formula One races and the Super Bowl.I pride myself on being a serial entrepreneur, recently expanding into healthcare staffing to support long-term care facilities. My philosophy centers on comprehensive research, mentorship, and building strong relationships, all while emphasizing the importance of diversity and merit in recruitment.At SGA Talent, we believe in proactive recruitment strategies, nurturing talent pools tailored to client needs. My commitment to fostering professional development and work-life balance underpins my team-oriented approach. I am passionate about empowering others in their career journeys and excited to explore new opportunities that align with my mission of delivering exceptional talent solutions. Let’s connect and collaborate to drive success together!
