A Career That Makes a Difference

Gerald Ross Agency was founded in 1937 in Brookings, Oregon and has grown into one of the region's most trusted independent insurance agencies. We serve thousands of Oregon Coast families and businesses across personal, commercial, marine, and specialty insurance lines.

As an independent agency, we work for our clients — not the insurance companies. That means our agents have the freedom to shop 50++ carriers and genuinely find the best coverage for each person they serve. It is a more meaningful, more rewarding way to work in insurance.

We are proud to be locally owned and operated. Our team members are neighbors, community volunteers, and outdoor enthusiasts who chose to build their careers on the Oregon Coast. If that sounds like you, we would love to meet you.
