Our Company’s Story
Dean Austin didn’t set out to play by the rules; he set out to rewrite them. He saw an industry tangled in red tape, jargon, and confusion, where business leaders and HR teams were often left to navigate benefits alone. That didn’t sit right with him.
So he built something different. From day one, Austin Benefits Group was founded on transparency, trust, and an unshakable commitment to people. Dean’s vision was clear: deliver smarter, simpler benefits solutions that empower employers and support employees, without the headaches.
Twenty-five years later, that vision still fuels everything we do. Austin Benefits Group has grown into Michigan’s #1 privately held benefits agency, trusted by hundreds of organizations across industries, and powered by a team that blends grit, heart, and innovation to lead the future of benefits. We don’t just work here, we believe in what we do, and we bring that belief to every client, every conversation, every day.
