Secrets of Bonding

This year is going GREAT for us, and we need to add staff.

FIA is a 40+ year old, family run, (one location) national surety carrier. Here’s your chance to be a “big fish in a small pond!”

Everyone is treated like family, and you can always walk into the big boss’s office for a conversation. Try THAT over at “Humongous Surety Co.”

If you or a friend / colleague are interested, send your resume to Michele Charette: “mcharette@fiasurety.com”
