UMB Fund Services Named a Top Workplace for Fifth Straight Year

UMB Fund Services (UMBFS) is pleased to announce that it has again been named one of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Top Workplaces in southeastern Wisconsin. Top Workplaces are determined based on employee feedback via an anonymous online survey.

This is the fifth straight year that UMBFS has been named a Top Workplace. In addition, UMBFS has garnered special distinction awards during the past five years for overall company direction, employee communication, and ethics.

“We are pleased and honored to be recognized as a Top Workplace for the fifth time in five years,” said John Zader, chief executive officer of UMB Fund Services. “This distinction represents a vote of confidence from our associates, who have clearly embraced our culture that values personal initiative, original thinking, diversity, teamwork and community involvement. We believe hiring and retaining the best people distinguishes us competitively, and we will continue to focus on making UMBFS a great place to work.”

To accommodate the company’s continued growth and offer associates an attractive work environment featuring additional amenities and wellness opportunities, UMBFS is moving its headquarters in June to a newly renovated space at Schlitz Park in downtown Milwaukee. New amenities include free parking, a free fitness center, walk/bike paths, free bike rentals, a one-acre park next to the building and free Wi-Fi, among others.
