Traffic Associate - (Job Number: 0008PB)
Allstate Roadside Services is the second largest publicly traded provider of roadside assistance and associated services in the U.S. marketplace today. Allstate Roadside Services emerged from an acquisition by Allstate Insurance Company of the Partnership Marketing Group (PMG) in 2008, integrating them with Allstate Motor Club, one of the nation's top motor clubs with nearly 50 years of roadside expertise. PMG's 43 year heritage brought a rich portfolio of offerings; such as Signature Motor Club, one of the leading providers of roadside assistance in the nation; as well as legal benefit plans and membership-based affinity offerings.
Unifying these two highly recognized and well established roadside assistance providers enables Allstate Roadside Services to continue to serve millions of drivers in the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico through the Allstate Motor Club, as well as a wide array of industries, including wireless providers, fleet vehicles, and one of the fastest growing segments in the marketplace: wholesale auto partners (OEM)s.
