TAMPA, Fla. (Newsradio 970 WFLA)– Governor Rick Scott says IRONMAN, a global endurance sports brand, will be expanding its Tampa headquarters and creating 70 new jobs.
Ironman currently employs more than 160 people here in Florida. The new jobs include sales, marketing, human resources, operations, finance and information technology.
Governor Scott also recognized the company with a Governor’s Business Ambassador Award during the Enterprise Florida board meeting. Governor Scott says, “Our work to cut more than $10 billion in taxes since 2011 has helped encourage global businesses like Ironman to continue investing in our state, which means more opportunities are available for Florida families.
The project was made possible through strong partnerships between Enterprise Florida, the Tampa Hillsborough Economic Development Corporation, Hillsborough County, the City of Tampa and the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity.
