Josh Rothman, CEO and Founder of CRESTA Management Services, is this week’s guest on The Green Rush!
With more than 250,000 new cannabis jobs rumored to be filled, CRESTA Management is helping businesses within the space scale their operations to meet their complex needs on the operational, financial and regulatory compliance fronts. Recognizing that part of the difficulty of scaling up is finding quality talent, CRESTA positions itself as the go-to firm that companies large and small turn to when they need to find someone to fill these gaps.
Our hosts sat down with Josh at the Cannabis World Conference and Business Expo to discuss the trends in hiring that he’s seeing including which regions of the U.S. are see shortages and what kind of positions major MSOs are in most need of. If you’ve ever been interested in making the career switch to cannabis, this episode will provide you with the direction you need to make that leap.
Don’t sit back, lean forward and enjoy!
Josh Rothman, Founder and CEO of CRESTA Management Service
Josh Rothman is the founder and CEO of CRESTA Management Services, an Executive Staffing and Human Resources firm with over 15 years of experience. Cresta Management Services is one of the largest boutique staffing agencies in the Western United States focused in the Public Accounting Arena and Real Estate Markets. When the tide of cannabis legalization began to sweep across North America, Josh saw the opportunity to support a fast-growing, yet under-served, market in need of experienced professionals. CRESTA responded by becoming one of the first established staffing agencies to pivot to the cannabis industry. From offices in California and New York, CRESTA now builds high-performing teams for cannabis companies across the US.
Before founding CRESTA, Josh served as Managing Partner and Director of Human Resource at HR Outsourcing and Recruiting companies. It was during this time that he shaped the “relationships-first” approach that defines the service philosophy of CRESTA. Josh and his team of 15+ recruiters take the time to get to know both clients and candidates on a personal level. By understanding personal goals and motivations, CRESTA makes lasting connections that serve the needs of both parties.
