COLUMBUS — Western Alliance Bank, the primary subsidiary of Western Alliance Bancorporation, one of the country’s top-performing banks with more than $65 billion in assets, recently announced an expansion into Westerville, investing $2.2 million and creating 150 jobs for a new technology hub. The company is currently growing its technology organization by hiring data analysts, engineers, developers, network operators, management, finance specialists and others.
To support the bank’s rapidly expanding products and business segments, the company’s IT division is establishing a workforce in new areas, like Westerville, to enable acquisition and retention of world-class data analytics, cyber security, software development, finance and IT talent. The banking company has nearly 3,400 full-time employees across its offices and is adding 150 positions with this expansion into the Columbus region.
"We are building a high-performing technology enterprise for our high-performing bank, and we were drawn to this outstanding part of Ohio," Tim Boothe, chief operating officer of Western Alliance Bank, said. "The robust talent pipeline, concentration of finance and technology companies and competitive business environment in the Columbus region, is the type of ecosystem we were looking for when scouting locations across the country. The community amenities, strong corporate presence, Class A office product and talent acquisition practices made Westerville the top contender for this project, which will ultimately be a catalyst for the bank’s growth nationwide.”
Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Western Alliance Bank is a dedicated commercial bank that regularly earns top industry accolades. American Banker and Bank Director both ranked Western No. 1 for performance in 2021 among large banks with assets greater than $50 billion.
