More details emerged about Allegis Group Inc.’s plans to add up to 500 jobs in Jacksonville.

To start, it had 715 jobs in Duval County as of year-end 2021.

That creates at least 1,215 full-time retained and new jobs.

Jacksonville City Council voted 17-1 on June 28 to approve a grant capped at $750,000 for Allegis Group Inc. for the additional positions.

The legislation authorizes an economic development agreement between the city and Allegis for the taxpayer incentive of $1,500 per job.

More details are in the economic development agreement, which includes a performance schedule that shows Allegis will create 100 jobs a year starting this year through year-end 2026.

The grant would be paid after jobs are created and the city verifies the wages.

Allegis, a Hanover, Maryland-based workforce services company, says it will create the jobs at an average wage of $53,000.

The company estimates it will make a $1.3 million capital investment into real estate improvements, IT equipment, furniture and fixtures, according to a May 20 city project summary.

The company’s dozen brands include Aerotek; Actalent; TEKsystems; Aston Carter; Allegis Global Solutions; Major, Lindsey & Africa; Allegis Partners; MarketSource; and Getting Hired.

The company proposes to create the Jacksonville jobs at four addresses listed in the agreement: 7077 Bonneval Road, 10375 Centurion Parkway N., 10401 Deerwood Park Blvd. and 10752 Deerwood Park Blvd. S.

The company appears to operate its largest presence in Capital Plaza at Deerwood Park at 10401 Deerwood Park Blvd. in South Jacksonville. 

Industry sources say it uses 100,000 square feet of space there.

Its Aerotek and Actalent brands operate at 7077 Bonneval Road in Liberty Center.

TEKsystems is at 10375 Centurion Parkway N.

Allegis also uses space at 10752 Deerwood Park Blvd. S. in WaterView Building 2.

Allegis Global Solutions has a Jacksonville address on the second floor at 10748 Deerwood Park Blvd., which is the first WaterView Building.

Allegis Group is an international recruitment company. 

The city said the company, founded in 1983, is a global leader in talent solutions with $14.5 billion in annual revenue.

A previous Jacksonville job description said Allegis Group serves “virtually every major industry, and we’ve placed exceptional people in hundreds of thousands of roles and positions.”

Allegis began with the founding of Aerotek, a contract employment and consulting company.

Its website is www.AllegisGroup.com.
