Question about PTC eligibility when receiving offer for insurance through employer

Hi, I recently started working on an assignment through a staffing agency. The agency offers all new employees minimum essential coverage insurance at a low cost. The problem is: the insurance sucks, but it meets ACA requirements.

The offer is good for the first 60 days of employment (which have past)/open enrollment/qualifying life event.

Now, according to the Marketplace's rules:

You can’t get any savings for any month that you:

Have an offer of job-based coverage that’s considered affordable (and meets the minimum standards)

My question is:

Is there any way I could get PTC savings in this situation?

Would I just have to pay the full premium for the few months that my employer's offer is available each year, then receive Marketplace savings the rest of the year? What would be my best plan of action in my situation? I really want better insurance than what's available to me through the staffing agency.
