Whittaker Corp. Moving Division to Simi Valley

Troop Real Estate in Simi Valley has been selected by the Whittaker Corp. to handle relocation needs for up to 150 employees who are scheduled to move to the Simi Valley area between now and February.

Whittaker is relocating its safety system division from Concord, in the San Francisco Bay Area, to the company’s electronic resources division in Simi Valley.

“This considerable expansion of Whittaker’s Simi offices benefits our community hugely by bringing more jobs, prestige and revenue,” said Brian Troop, owner of Troop Real Estate.

Troop relocation specialists Alex Gandel and Jon Haines are in charge of the project. They will provide the transferees with information about Moorpark and the Simi and Conejo valleys, including schools, churches, clubs, recreation and sports.

They also will help the spouses of transferees prepare their resumes and search for new jobs.
