Even with our entire St. Louis workforce in the new building, it will still have room for a significant number of additional associates to satisfy our planned growth,\u201d said Greig Woodring, president and Chief Executive Officer of RGA. \u201cWe are very happy to make this commitment to Chesterfield and the St. Louis area,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>St. Louis County Executive Charlie A. Dooley said, \u201cI am proud to partner with RGA and help them grow in St. Louis. I see great things ahead for this company.
