Group 1001 has moved to a new office at 230 CityPoint, just outside of Boston. The new location provides a more flexible, modern space, allowing greater collaboration amongst team members to better serve clients.
Located just 20 minutes from downtown Boston, the office will support more than 150 employees.
“Our teams were welcomed in early November and we’re all enjoying the building amenities and numerous meeting spaces to work together,” said Jackie MacKinnon, Director, Corporate Real Estate. “The new office space is very inviting, and we love the flexibility it provides for our employees.”
The original Waltham office opened in 2015. Employees from Group 1001 including Delaware Life Insurance Company and Delaware Life Marketing utilize this office. The team takes pride in giving back to the community and partnering with Healthy Waltham and other local organizations. This summer, the office donated more than 250 fully stocked backpacks to families in need with elementary school-aged children. The Waltham office is currently teaming up with Caring Partners’ Coats for Kids & Families to collect winter coats for those in need.
The new address is: 230 3rd Avenue, Floor 6, Waltham, MA 02451 We look forward to hosting you in our beautiful, welcoming new space.
