Insurance provider is deepening its commitment to flexible workplace offerings to support company growth
The nation’s second-largest P&C insurer has announced an impressive plan to seek up to 10,000 roles in 2024 to help support its several years of continued year-over-year growth. Emphasizing a flexible approach, available positions will be a mix of in-office, remote and hybrid workplace roles across claims, customer care, IT and analyst, legal, and corporate functions.
“Our talented group of more than 60,000 employees across the country are at the forefront of what we do, and we’re committed to meeting the needs of our current employees as well as job seekers through a reimagined workforce,” said Bill Clawson, Progressive Chief Human Resources Officer. “Building upon our inclusive culture, in this post-Covid era we offer a flexible workplace approach and will continue to grow nationally with our expansive in-office, remote, and hybrid workplace options.”
Ohio-based insurer boasted a 25% increase in number of policies in force and total revenue last year
Over the past decade, the organization has produced year-over-year increases in the number of policies in force and total revenue—with the latter seeing an increase of 25% in 2023 versus the prior year. The company has maintained this growth into the new calendar year; at the end of March, the company reported year-over-year increases in policies in force across all parts of the business compared to the same date last year. With these continued positive trends, the company is actively seeking qualified candidates to fill a multitude of roles to help support its growing customer base.
