OCC expands, plans to move Chicago HQ
Options Clearing Corp. has been on a hiring spree, and now it needs new digs to accommodate the increased headcount, CEO Craig Donohue said in an interview.
Chicago-based OCC, which guarantees options trades across the industry, will move to the Franklin, the office complex formerly known as the AT&T Corporate Center, in the second quarter of 2018. The company will expand its footprint 43 percent, taking 105,000 square feet in the complex at West Monroe and South Wells streets.
The space increase closely follows its workforce expansion: The company
has added 100 employees over the past year for a total headcount of 550 now, and OCC is still planning to hire another 80, with about half slated for information technology jobs.
