The Sky's the Limit
When I started at Erie as an intern 20 years ago, I could never have imagined the road my career would take. From that very first day on the job, I discovered ERIE was made up of a community of co-workers who were willing to support and encourage me and of a culture that encouraged and welcomed people to use their strengths and develop their talents. With that support, I’ve found myself able to advance my reach and give back to the company in various roles and several departments. I’m grateful for my personal experience and know that wherever your interests and talents lie, Erie Insurance will provide an excellent environment to reach and exceed your career expectations.

Empowered to Make Decisions
Working at ERIE changed my perspective entirely about our industry, as I didn’t realize our operating model and culture existed in the business. Our greatest differentiator is our people: employees and agents who are truly committed to working together for the good of our customers. If you’re interested in management, ERIE offers training, insurance licensing support, on-the-job experience and more. Managers are empowered to make decisions without levels of bureaucracy. Opportunities with Erie Insurance are limitless.
