A California-based information technology provider is moving to Henrico County.
ASGN Incorporated, currently based in Calabasas, California, will move its headquarters to Innsbrook and create 121 jobs at the location. It will invest $5 million in the site at 4400 Cox Road.
In total, the company plans to create 700 jobs throughout Virginia by expanding operations in Virginia Beach, Roanoke and elsewhere, investing $12.4 million overall to do so.
The company selected Virginia over Massachusetts in making the move.
“The creation of 700 new jobs is critical as we work to rebuild and strengthen our economy from the impacts of COVID-19,” said Governor Ralph Northam. “These projects are evidence that our business climate, infrastructure, and talent pipeline are strong and that Virginia is still the best state for business. We are thrilled that ASGN has decided to both relocate and grow its operations here and we thank the company for its commitment to supporting our communities, especially during these challenging times.”
ASGN, provides of IT and professional consulting services in technology, digital, creative, engineering, and life sciences fields across commercial and government sectors, is ranked 698th on the Fortune 1000 list. The company helps clients develop, implement, and operate IT and business solutions through its integrated offering of professional staffing and IT solutions.
ASGN subsidiary Apex Systems, LLC was founded in Richmond in 1995 by Brian Callaghan, Win Sheridan, and Jeff Veatch, and has experienced strong growth across the Commonwealth for over 20 years. Apex Systems employs approximately 4,000 Virginians primarily in Henrico, Northern Virginia, and the cities of Roanoke and Virginia Beach in addition to employees located across the United States.
“With our two largest divisions based in the Commonwealth, it just made sense to have our headquarters in Henrico County,” said Ted Hanson, CEO and President of ASGN Incorporated. “This move allows us to remain close to our key customers and brands. Virginia’s strong pipeline of information technology talent for both the commercial and government sectors make it an ideal place for us to have our headquarters and continue to grow.”
Henrico Board of Supervisors Chairman Tommy Branin, whose Three Chopt District will house the new headquarters, said that county officials are excited about the announcement.
“We are delighted to welcome ASGN’s Fortune 1000 corporate headquarters to Henrico,” Branin said. “ASGN offers a broad spectrum of technical staffing solutions. They will be a strong addition to not only Innsbrook, but to Henrico County.”
