Voya Financial communications spokesperson Kris Kagel said Friday in an email that much of the Jacksonville work is moving to the company's new office in the Phoenix area.

Kagel said many employees and managers are relocating and some Jacksonville employees will work from home.

Voya Financial Inc., based in New York, is a Fortune 500 retirement, investment and insurance company.

Voya came to Jacksonville through a previous company. ING U.S. came to Jacksonville by way of its 2008 acquisition of CitiStreet LLC, which leased about 98,400 square feet of space in Freedom Commerce Centre, which became Prominence park.

In 2014, ING U.S changed its name to Voya.
