Reuters Affirms Commitment and Adds Jobs to St. Louis Campus, Bringing Creve Coeur Jobs to 650



Above: Reuters’ Help Desk is the central clearinghouse for all U.S. customer service operations, which will now be consolidated at its Creve Coeur campus.

Reuters America Inc. announced in May that its Creve Coeur campus would become its sole U.S. customer service center. In affirming its long-term commitment to the St. Louis region, Reuters announced it would be moving its customer service jobs from both Chicago and Hauppauge, NY to St. Louis—bringing the St. Louis operation to nearly 650 jobs.

State and local economic developers have worked for the past year to encourage Reuters to retain and expand the St. Louis operation, following Reuters’ acquisition of the enterprise last year from Bridge Information Systems, Inc.

Earlier this year, Governor Bob Holden joined RCGA officials in meeting personally in New York with Reuters America’s Chief Executive Officer Phillip Lynch and Reuters’ top real estate executives. The Governor and First Lady Lori Holden also joined RCGA Chairman John Bachmann and Kay Bachmann in hosting the Lynches at the Carnegie Hall performance by the Saint Louis Symphony.

When completed, the move of jobs from Chicago and New York will make Creve Coeur the only U.S. location among the company’s customer service operations, with the other locations in London; Geneva; and Sydney. Reuters America is the U.S. subsidiary of London-based Reuters Group PLC, the largest distributor of financial data in the world.
