“Slalom’s expansion allows us to provide a deeper level of service to our New Jersey clients by hiring the state’s top talent,” said Troy Johnson, Slalom Chief Growth Officer and Co-Founder. “Our model is to hire locally. In over 35 cities around the world, Slalom teams have the autonomy to move fast and do what’s right for our clients, making us more personal and nimbler than traditional consulting firms.”
Home to over 20 Fortune 500 companies and industry leaders in pharmaceuticals, insurance, retail, and technology, New Jersey is the ideal location for Slalom to help businesses find new ways to innovate and grow.
“On behalf of the New Jersey business community, Choose New Jersey would like to welcome Slalom to our great state,” said Jose Lozano, President and CEO of Choose New Jersey. “This move demonstrates that New Jersey continues to be a premier place for leading businesses with all the assets – and accessibility – any forward-thinking company needs.
