About Us
Welcome! If you are considering Pioneer State Mutual as a prospective employer, you are anticipating an exciting career with a growing company committed to its people and focused on its future. 

You may also know that traditional values—honesty, fairness and uncompromising integrity—are every bit as important to us as innovative ideas and strong business results. Pioneer and its staff have earned a reputation over the years for financial strength (327 million dollars in combined assets and 151 million dollars in direct written premium), for quality products and service and for exemplary claim-handling ability. A.M. Best Company has rated us A+ (Superior), which reflects the relative strength of an insurance company, in comparison to the overall insurance industry in vital areas like competent underwriting, control of expenses, adequate resources and sound investments.

Pioneer State Mutual is a single state provider of property and casualty products.  We recognize our social responsibility, are committed to the communities in the state of Michigan and have a clear picture of the kind of company we want to be. One that encourages and rewards high performance, where we are constantly "raising the bar" to new heights, searching for smarter and greener ways of working while leveraging technology to become more efficient for our workforce and our customers. One that is known for its agility, where individual employees and the entire organization adapt quickly and easily to change. One that employee’s find rewarding, where people are excited about what they do and the opportunities that lie ahead.

To achieve that vision, we’re hiring, promoting, training and rewarding people who have a similar vision of their own future. People that welcome personal responsibility, yet have fun and work well with others. People with technical or subject matter expertise, along with an understanding of broader business issues. People who have a relentless discomfort with the status quo and a willingness to make things happen.
