Federal construction and engineering contractor Conti Federal Services chose Orlando as its new headquarters, which is now located in the Central Florida Research Park, which is the sixth-largest research park in the United States in the next four years. These positions will pay about 150% of the median salary in Orange County. The company moved its headquarters from New Jersey and is currently hiring for positions in central Florida.
“Because of our pro-business environment, Florida is one of the top destinations for business relocation in the country,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “We’re proud to welcome Conti Federal Services to Orlando, where they will play a vital role in Central Florida’s economic development.”
“As we looked for a new home for the Conti Federal team, we wanted to work with a partner with the same core values – integrity, honesty and a desire to make every deal a win-win for both sides,” said Peter Ceribelli, CEO of Conti Federal. “The Orlando region proved itself to be that partner - sharing with us a history of supporting the national defence industry and a commitment to developing the next generation of engineering and construction talent. We look forward to being part of the Orlando community and an active participant in the development of opportunities and growth for the region overall.”
Some of Conti Federal’s noteworthy projects comprise building temporary COVID hospitals in New Jersey and St. Croix, multiple F-35 fighter jet Hardened Aircraft Shelters in Israel, levee and flood infrastructure jobs in New Orleans and disaster housing for hurricane-displaced residents in the Florida Panhandle.
“Conti Federal is the newest addition in a line of corporate relocations that recognize the ease of doing business here,” said Florida Secretary of Commerce Jamal Sowell, president and CEO of Enterprise Florida. “We welcome this great company and the contribution they will make to the state’s economy and creation of good-paying jobs.”
