Insurance group HUK-Coburg recently established a new branch in Jena, where it will eventually take on 200 new employees in a leased building with approximately 2,000 m² of office space. The new call center will handle inquiries from customers throughout Germany. An HUK-Coburg spokesperson said the insurer wanted the branch to be not so far from the head office in Coburg and was pleased to be situated close to the tertiary institutes in Jena. The good public transport services in Jena were another plus factor. (maa)
