Your Employee Benefits Department, Just Down the Hall

You started your business to do what you love — not to navigate the complexities of group health insurance and employee benefits compliance. That's where IBG comes in!

As a Portland-based employee benefits broker, we become an extension of your team. When your employees have questions about their health insurance, they call us. When renewal season arrives, we handle the market analysis. When benefits regulations or Oregon’s insurance landscape changes, you hear it from us first.

We're not a 1-800 number or a faceless service center. We're your local benefits partners — available, responsive, and invested in your success.

Employee Benefits for Growing Oregon Businesses

IBG specializes in working with small to mid-size employers across the Portland Oregon metro area, Clark County Washington, and Central Oregon. Our sweet spot? Companies with 11-50 employees who want more than a transactional relationship with their benefits broker.

Our clients share a few things in common: they're engaged business owners, they value their employees, and they want a benefits partner who shows up — not just at renewal time, but year-round.

Why Portland Businesses Choose IBG as Their Benefits Broker

In an industry dominated by national agencies and revolving-door brokers or Account Managers, we've stayed small on purpose.
Here's what makes Innovative Benefits Group different:

  • This isn't a side gig—it's our career. Founded in 1999 and named Oregon Broker of the Year in 2001, we've built lasting relationships with clients who've trusted us for decades.

  • We're Oregonians and involved community members serving Pacific Northwest businesses. Based in Clackamas, we understand the local market, know the regional carriers, and provide hands-on support throughout Portland metro, Vancouver WA, and Central Oregon.

  • We don't throw generic rate sheets at you. Every recommendation is tailored to your team's specific needs, your budget, and your business goals.

  • We answer to you, not a C-Suite upstairs. Our independence means we recommend what's actually best for your business.
