TradePMR Doubles Down on Growth Plan, Announces Expansion in Tampa
Firm dubbed one of "The Best Places to Work in Financial Technology" for a second consecutive year.
GAINESVILLE, Fla., May 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- TradePMR, a technology and custodial services provider that works exclusively with Registered Investment Advisors, is expanding. The firm has announced the opening of an operations center in Tampa, Fla. The new location will house a variety of positions in technology including IT, infrastructure, development, and business operations such as trading and business analysts.
"Opening a new location during this extraordinary time has come with a unique set of challenges, but I am confident we have built an organization with an influential culture that will thrive in an additional location," said Robb Baldwin, founder, and CEO of TradePMR. "As TradePMR continues to grow exponentially year over year, we will now have a rich talent pool of experienced financial services professionals from the Tampa Bay area to round out the team."
The Tampa office, located at Rocky Point, will house a mixture of existing and new-hire employees. The location officially opened on May 4th; however, employees will join the office in a phased approach in conjunction with COVID-19 regulations.
"Our focus for the Gainesville and Tampa locations will remain on our existing employees as we examine how to open our offices safely," continued Baldwin. "We are reviewing our onboarding process for new employees to ensure their safety and comfort from day one."
