NEW YORK CITY—Indeed—the world's largest job search engine by users—will move its New York office next year to the Hippodrome building in Midtown.

The technology company's long-term lease at the building, which sits at 1120 Ave. of the Americas, starts in January and it is for approximately 125,000 square feet of space. The company will move from its current location at 125 W. 55th St., where its offices span 55,000 square feet.

Indeed was represented by JLL's Lisa Kiell, vice chairman, in the deal. Edison Properties, which owns the Hippodrome, was represented by Cushman & Wakefield.

The tenant will occupy fully floors 9, 11, 12, 13, and 16, with room to accommodate over 700 employees in coming years. Indeed employees also will have access to outdoor space overlooking midtown Manhattan.

"We are thrilled to be moving to this prime location in New York to meet the growing needs of our organization," says Paul Wolfe, SVP of human resources at Indeed. "The Hippodrome's unique style and location are a perfect fit for us to continue our work of matching employers with job seekers around the globe."

"The Hippodrome building will offer a truly unique experience for our employees," says Derek Stewart, head of real estate at Indeed. "The design concept pays homage to interesting job industries that call New York home. We're placing much thought into creating an environment that will attract top talent."

"The central location, efficient floorplates and superior management at 1120 Avenue of the Americas—coupled with the incredible outdoor space—provides a powerful attraction and retention tool for employees," says Kiell.
