    Franchise Owners

    Brian and Jayne DeKraker opened Express Employment Professionals of Battle Creek in 2013.  Due to their impact on the community, they opened the Express Employment Professionals of Jonesville in 2020.

     

    Brian and Jayne sought to find a community where they could help positively impact the area.  This led them to opening the Battle Creek, MI Express Employment Professionals office in 2013 and the Jonesville, MI office in 2020.  After opening, Brian and Jayne quickly became the driving force enriching individual lives and their families through gainful employment opportunities. Through these last 10 years, they both believe that the success they have achieved lies within the team's ability to exceed our client's expectations.  It is important for us to build partnerships with our clients and build trust with our associates.
