Recently, TalentBridge furthered its commitment to Chicago and the companies who call it home by relocating one of its permanent offices to the city.
“We’re excited to enhance our role as part of the Chicago business community and moving one of our offices is a fantastic way to start doing just that,” said Suzanne Maldonado, vice president TalentBridge. “Our new location will allow us to better serve our clients and create partnerships with other nonprofits like the Association Forum as well as provide growth opportunities throughout one of the top markets for talent in the United States.”
Both organizations believe strongly in working together to serve the communities they are part of and intend to grow workforce development outreach throughout the area especially among nonprofits.
