Our History

JR Associates Group was founded in December 1981 by Daniel Keller, who created our mission of “building companies by placing successful people in key positions”. To accomplish this, we understand our role is to serve the needs of our Candidates and Client-Employers to provide and ensure a strong match.

We are highly trained professional staffing consultants engaged in full time, permanent placement in Technology and Business Sectors. We employ a high level of professionalism in attitude, function and ethics. Our Client-Employers include Large Global, Growth Stage and VC Backed Startup Companies. Key benefits: we ensure a solid “return on investment” for our Client-Employers; and we also provide our Candidates “the opportunity to advance from a job to a career.”
