MARIN COUNTY, CA -- Glassdoor, one of the world’s largest job and recruiting sites, said May 23 that it plans to relocate its headquarters from Mill Valley, Calif. to San Francisco during Fall 2020, but will still maintain an office in Marin County.

The company also said that it plans to create 300 additional Bay Area jobs over the next five years.

Glassdoor’s new global headquarters will be located at 300 Mission Street, currently known as 50 Beale Street. Glassdoor will initially lease four full floors with a capacity of up to 800 employees.

"As we continue our rapid global growth, San Francisco is the ideal setting for our next chapter, as it offers even more access to top talent and cutting-edge office space to expand and achieve our mission of helping people everywhere find a job and company they love,” Glassdoor President and Chief Operating Officer Christian Sutherland-Wong said in a prepared statement.

As part of the move, Glassdoor will incorporate its current San Francisco-based teams at 353 Sacramento Street into its new headquarters in Fall 2020. Glassdoor will also continue to maintain an office in Marin County, the company said, but it is unclear if it will be located at the current building in Mill Valley, or in another location.
