Jackson, Debby

Debby Jackson is the Co-Founder, Owner and President of Pivotal Search, a staffing agency with a unique business model that saves customers up to 40% in comparison to traditional staffing agencies. Pivotal's business model came out of the frustration of dealing with staffing agencies and their high fees, after Debby spent years as the Director of Talent Acquisition for North America and Europe for Tory Burch and worked in a Director level position for L Brands, a Fortune 500 company, for 10 years.   

Pivotal currently has 12 associates, all of whom are women, with the exception of Debby's husband, Bill, who is the COO and responsible for all the "behind the scenes work" at Pivotal.  The business model allows for talented women to work from home, providing a great work/life balance.  Debby strives to have a team that is supportive of one another and that works cohesively. 

Bill and Debby live outside of Chicago. The have three children ranging from 18-26 years old between them and two Great Danes, Marco and Athena, who keep them on their toes.  They love to travel and are actively involved in their local church and community where Debby sits on the Board of Directors of WINGS, the largest nonprofit domestic violence agency in the state of IL.
