Meet the Team

Heather Zdybel

Branch Manager 

For more than 30 years, Heather Zdybel has been helping people find opportunities and businesses find talent as part of the Express Employment Professionals team in Elk Grove Village.

Starting as a Front Office Coordinator in 1994 and working her way into leadership, she has worn many hats throughout her career—from recruiting and business development to operations and branch management.

Heather's favorite part of the job is building relationships and creating successful matches between associates and employers. Having helped thousands of people take the next step in their careers, she understands the life-changing impact that the right opportunity can have.

Outside of work, Heather has spent more than a decade volunteering with Midwest Labrador Retriever Rescue as a foster dog mom. She's passionate about helping both people and pups find the perfect match. And if you're looking for her during a busy workday, there's a good chance you'll find a cold Coca-Cola nearby.

Personal Motto: "A great job provides hope, dignity, and purpose."
