Quad MKE, located in the Century City Tower at 4201 N. 27th
Street, became operational earlier this year and is Quad’s first
dedicated hub for talent sourcing, skills training and community
engagement.
“QuadMKE represents our long-term dedication to work with the
community and help overcome the inhibitors to family-sustaining
careers,” said Joel Quadracci, Chairman, President and CEO of Quad.
“Quad is built on a unique 'maker' culture that focuses on
problem-solving for our clients, and that requires a talented,
quality workforce. Quad MKE is providing the tools, training and
transportation necessary to attract the talent that will propel us
forward as a marketing experience company.”
Quadracci continued: “We are continuing to build our presence in
Milwaukee – not only through this hub, but also through investments
like the Melvina Park expansion and improvement – because it’s
important for us to actively invest in our local economy in ways
that support job readiness and healthier communities. We believe
our investment will serve as a catalyst for others to get involved.
We are pleased to contribute to this vibrant neighborhood and look
forward to Century City being an integral part of our path
forward.”
Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson shared his appreciation for the
myriad efforts underway to bring more investment and activity to
the city’s industrial corridor. “Quad is a respected corporate
partner in Milwaukee, and it’s great news that they’re building
upon their already-strong presence in the 30th Street Industrial
Corridor,” he said. “Thank you to the Quad team for investing in
our city’s success.”
Amy Pechacek, Secretary-designee of the Wisconsin Department of
Workforce Development, lauded Quad’s latest efforts to advance
workforce development efforts in the state. “Quad MKE represents
Wisconsin's spirit of innovation and resilience as we work together
to address barriers to employment, such as access to transportation
and advanced skills training, in Milwaukee," she said. "Milwaukee
is a source of immense workforce talent, and initiatives such as
Quad MKE are connecting this talent to opportunities that are
available today."
Removing barriers to employment is a primary focus for Quad MKE.
For example, to address the need for reliable transportation, Quad
MKE provides a company-run shuttle service from the near north side
to select Quad manufacturing locations not served by public bus
routes. People who participate in the transportation program also
receive meals while commuting on the shuttle.
Beyond manufacturing roles, Quad MKE is also helping to prepare
individuals for administrative and creative agency careers within
Quad, especially as the company continues to expand its marketing
solutions portfolio.
“Quad MKE is proud to be part of this community’s ongoing
revitalization efforts,” said Brandon Ramey, Quad MKE Site
Director. “We thank our many community partners, including Running
Rebels and JobsWork MKE, for their support in helping us create
pathways to jobs with long-term career potential. We would not have
been able to achieve what we have done without their guidance and
support.”
Also joining the unveiling of Quad MKE were Kelli Williams,
Chief Executive Officer of The Brand Lab; Chawnett Hicks, Office
Manager for 30th Street Industrial Corridor; and many others.
During the event, guests toured the Century City Tower to learn
more about other enterprises that are located in the building and
are seeking to make a difference in the community through
technology, innovation and community investment.
