Fidelity Investments is on a hiring binge, looking to fill about 4,000 new roles by midyear as rival asset managers winnow their staffs.
The additional positions will focus on customer service and technology, the company said in a statement Wednesday. It follows a year of record hiring that brought Boston-based Fidelity’s head count to 68,000, according to an annual report.
Other big investment companies have been trimming head count amid economic uncertainty and softening financial markets. BlackRock Inc. announced plans last month to cut about 500 jobs, or 2.5% of its global workforce. And AllianceBernstein Holding LP eliminated more than 100 jobs, Bloomberg reported earlier this month.
Fidelity’s annual revenue of $25.2 billion was 5% higher than in 2021, despite net flows that were more than fifth lower than they were the prior year, according to the report.
