Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Collective Health announced the company is opening a new office in Chicago. The rapidly growing company selected Chicago for its second office due to the area’s rich technical talent pool, and it plans to hire engineers, designers, and product managers this year, and will continue to hire local talent as the company grows. Collective Health gives companies an alternative to traditional employer health plans. A cloud-based, integrated health benefits platform enables self-insured employers to get the most out of their healthcare investment while taking the best possible care of their people. Its Net Promoter Score of 76 is the highest of any health plan administrator in the country. The announcement follows a recent State of Illinois report that found that Chicago’s job growth is outpacing job growth in the city’s suburbs for the first time in decades. Collective Health’s Chicago based jobs will be primarily engineering, design, and product management roles. Job openings are posted on Collective Health’s website. The company will benefit from Illinois’ higher education system, which produces 10 percent of the country’s computer science graduates every year. Collective Health is backed by NEA, Founders Fund, Google Ventures, and other leading investors. The company has seen exponential traction in the $1.2 trillion employer-sponsored insurance market – its membership has grown 500-fold in the last three years. Currently, the company covers more than 120,000 employee and dependent lives in all 50 states, across 30 employers. For more information, visit www.collectivehealth.com
