Mark Crandell

Founder

Mr. Crandell is the president of Benefit Resources. He was introduced to the administration of benefit plans as the principal officer of a labor organization where a large portion of his responsibility was working with membership benefits. Seeing firsthand the importance benefit programs play in the lives of those served made for an easy transition. The opportunity to manage a mid-sized Pension and Health & Welfare Plan presented itself, and the rest is history. Benefit Resources was established to serve the multi-employer industry and remains committed to that purpose today. Our family has grown, and we look forward to continuing to grow the range of benefit plans we offer as well as the populations we serve.
