Roger Whiteman began his career in recruiting in 1993 and has been in the IT staffing business for over 25 years. He worked for some of the larger agencies, small to mid-sized organizations that became large where he served as both branch and regional manager as well as managing director, and now finally his own company, Kolter Solutions, for the last 11 years. After a challenging period during the Great Recession of 2008 and for the next couple of years, Roger eventually founded Kolter Solutions in 2010. In the next couple of years Kolter began to experience a 48 % average ‘year over year’ growth between 2015 and 2020.
Today, Kolter has 20 internal employees including sales, recruiting, and administrative and operational staff. They have over 100 IT consultants, primarily in Central Florida and in 11 other states. Kolter won Staffing Industry Analysts “Best Places to Work” award in 2021, Best Places to Work in Central Florida in 2020, and the Fast 50 (fastest growing private companies in any industry in Central Florida) according to the Orlando Business Journal.
Roger’s focus today is primarily on the Operational Side, helping paint a shared vision, finance, compliance, legal and generally helping others to solve problems; keeping everyone rowing the boat in the same direction.
