The TPA Model, Applied to Talent.

Insurance carriers rely on IA firms for field inspections and TPAs for claims administration because it is the most efficient way to scale. Recruiting should work the exact same way. We operate as the Recruiting TPA for your business. Instead of building a hiring engine from scratch, you leverage ours. We provide the specialized infrastructure, the network, and the process so you can focus on closing claims while we find the people to work them.

About

Josh Fischer | Founder

For ten years, I’ve operated at the intersection of independent adjusting firms, insurance carriers, TPAs, and the workforce that powers them. I founded Kru Talent Group to be the strategic partner I saw missing in the market—one that combines deep data with a genuine understanding of the business model.
