Geico, the insurance giant, plans to open a campus in Tampa, bringing more than 1,000 new jobs to the area, the company announced Thursday.
Geico representatives confirmed that the company will occupy 190,000 square feet across three buildings in the Corporate Oaks Business Park, located near Tampa International Airport. The property previously housed New York Life Insurance offices and last sold for $12.8 million in 2023.
The new campus is expected to commence operations in August.
“Tampa’s robust talent pool and dynamic business environment make it the ideal location for our newest office, allowing us to better serve our growing customer base with various insurance products while creating significant employment opportunities in the region,” said Angela Rinella, Geico Senior Vice President, in a statement.
Geico is Florida’s second-largest auto insurer. The company currently employs 3,800 workers within the state, primarily in Jacksonville and Lakeland. Career opportunities at the Tampa location will span sales, service, and claims roles, as well as management positions. Applications will open next month.
