Company Need:
J&B Medical has experienced tremendous growth, and with new business evolving in northwest Ohio, the company wanted to capitalize on Toledo’s renaissance and revitalization to meet its developing needs.
Why Ohio?
J&B Medical will open a new support center in downtown Toledo, creating at least 50 new jobs within the first year and expectations to grow over the next several years. J&B Medical said the regional collaboration of economic development partners in working closely with the company helped move the project forward in an efficient manner.
Ohio’s drive to develop medical innovation has a global reputation. In recent years, investments in technology and infusions of talent have elevated healthcare’s capacity to develop technologies and treatments that improve people’s lives.
The company will receive JobsOhio Talent Acquisition Services which, through a tailored approach, will help J&B Medical attract talent for open positions with such services as talent advising, candidate marketing and pre-screening.
