Our Roanoke team staffs across Roanoke, Salem, and Southwest Virginia — placing warehouse, manufacturing, and production talent for the region's logistics and advanced-manufacturing employers.

Browse current openings and apply online, or call the Roanoke branch directly. Working with Lingo is always free for job seekers — we're paid by the employers who hire, never by the workers — and we pay weekly.

Tell the Roanoke branch the roles, shift, and headcount you need. We recruit and screen across Southwest Virginia and handle payroll, taxes, and workers' comp.

Most Roanoke-area warehouse and light-industrial assignments typically pay $15 to $18 an hour, depending on the role, shift, and experience. Lingo pays weekly, and skilled or specialized roles run higher.

Fast — we usually fill open roles the same week, and often as soon as the next day, because our Roanoke team keeps a screened local bench ready to work.

Speed depends on the role and the screening it requires, but because Lingo maintains a vetted pool of warehouse, production, and clerical candidates across the Roanoke Valley, most requests are filled the same week and many the next day. Scoping the request accurately in the first call — headcount, shift, equipment, start date — is what keeps the timeline short.

Warehouse and distribution work along the I-81 corridor is one of our core specialties, and openings change week to week as freight volume shifts. The fastest way to see what fits is the Quick Apply form on this page: submit your contact details and experience, and a Roanoke recruiter will match you against the warehouse, forklift, and material-handling assignments we are currently filling.

In practice the terms overlap, and Lingo covers both sides. As a temporary employment agency, we place workers in short-term and seasonal assignments with weekly pay. As a full-service staffing agency, we also handle temp-to-hire and direct hire recruiting — so a Roanoke employer can use one partner, and a job seeker one application, whether the need is a two-week assignment or a permanent role.

Many temporary jobs in Roanoke start quickly — often the same week you apply, once screening and any client-required onboarding are complete. Start dates vary by assignment, so we will not promise a specific timeline before matching you, but sharing your availability and preferred shift on the Quick Apply form helps a recruiter surface what is hiring soonest.

The Roanoke Valley's manufacturing base — transportation equipment, power transformers, food processing, and bottling among them — plus the distribution operations along I-81 generate steady demand for production, assembly, machine operation, and material-handling workers. Local employers often fill these roles through staffing firms, so applying once with Lingo's Roanoke office can put you in consideration for multiple openings at the same time.
