Kinetic Insurance Named to Business Insurance’s Best Places to Work in Insurance for Second Consecutive Year
Industry recognition highlights Kinetic’s culture of curiosity, strong employee engagement, and commitment to delivering exceptional value across the insurance ecosystem.
NEW YORK, September 3, 2026 – Kinetic Insurance, a technology-driven workers' compensation managing general agent (MGA), today announced that it has been named to Business Insurance’s annual Best Places to Work in Insurance list for the second consecutive year. The award program recognizes outstanding employers in the insurance industry for fostering exemplary workplaces where employees are empowered to thrive in their work and grow their skills.
Kinetic’s recognition stems from its intentional workplace culture, built on the foundation of thoughtful curiosity and shared core values. Kinetic team members aren’t forced to follow outdated operational playbooks. Instead, they are challenged to ask bold questions, give meaningful feedback, and learn from experimentation. Kinetic translates this internal vision into tangible value and innovative products for the broader insurance ecosystem, including brokers, policyholders, and carrier partners.
In the confidential employee assessment conducted by Best Companies Group, Kinetic’s survey responses reflected continued high engagement and satisfaction across all categories, including satisfaction with management, overall happiness with their role at the company, and an overwhelmingly positive work environment. Notable year-over-year performance gains from 2025 to 2026 include a 4% increase in Overall Engagement and a 3% increase in Leadership and Planning scores.
"Earning a place on the Best Places to Work in Insurance list for the second year running is a direct reflection of our commitment to each other and our shared mission," said Adam Price, CEO of Kinetic Insurance. "We hire new employees based on their level of curiosity and live by our shared values, like 'We row together,' and 'Get better every day.' When our workforce feels engaged, supported, and motivated to innovate, their positive energy extends to our partners and customers. Our team and workplace culture enable us to deliver superior workers’ comp insurance solutions, better service, and improved outcomes for brokers, insureds, and carriers."
"Our culture isn't just an internal metric. It dictates how we show up every single day," said Julie McCollough, Director of People Operations at Kinetic. "Our employees take true ownership of our shared goals. Creating a collaborative workplace where individuals feel valued and empowered impacts the high standard of excellence and collaboration we bring to the workers’ comp insurance market."
Best Places to Work in Insurance is an annual feature presented by the Custom Publishing unit of Business Insurance and Best Companies Group. The program identifies leading employers across the national insurance landscape through a two-part evaluation process: an employer questionnaire assessing company policies, demographics, and practices, and an anonymous employee engagement survey.
The official rankings and company profiles will be published in the November issue of Business Insurance and online at BusinessInsurance.com. To learn more about open positions within the Kinetic team, visit https://kineticcomp.com/careers.
