Profile

CBIZ, Inc.CBZIndustrials

Runs a US professional-services platform for middle-market clients across Financial Services and Benefits and Insurance Services. Revenue comes from recurring client work, cross-selling, new client wins, and acquisitions, with Marcum expanding accounting, tax, advisory, and technology capacity.

Serves middle-market businesses nationwide through Financial Services and Benefits and Insurance Services. Financial Services covers accounting and tax, advisory, technology, and government health-care consulting, while Benefits and Insurance Services covers employee benefits, payroll and HCM, property-and-casualty brokerage, risk management, and retirement services.

Operates from a coast-to-coast US footprint, with offices in major markets and a model built on recurring client work, retention, cross-serving, new-client wins, and acquisitions. The Marcum transaction added scale inside accounting, tax, advisory, and technology work.

Depends on integrating acquired practices and coordinating service lines across accounting, insurance brokerage, benefits administration, payroll, and consulting. A legacy managed-networking contract remains inside the reporting structure after the National Practices segment was combined into Financial Services.
