OUR STORY
Branex Group was founded to address a common challenge faced by many regional and national staffing firms-a limited talent pool due to large client demands and contractual restrictions. Listening to both past and prospective clients express a shared frustration -"We aren't receiving qualified candidates"- our Founder, Katie Ackert, took action.
She created a company dedicated to delivering innovative and tailored solutions. Today, Branex Group strategically partners with clients to provide a competitive advantage in technical recruiting. The name "Branex Group" embodies our dedication to family values and leading with purpose. It combines the names of our founders' sons-Brantlee (Katie Ackert's son) and Alex (Jeff Gardner's son)-serving as a constant reminder of our mission to uphold integrity, excellence, and service in every aspect of our business. At Branex Group, we are driven by a passion for delivering exceptional results and exceeding expectations for our clients and associates alike.
Branex Group, based in Auburn Hills, MI, is proud to be a certified Women-Owned Business through the Women's Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). With over 30 years of leadership experience, we have built a strong reputation for growth and excellence in the staffing industry.
