Great News for Barrie Economy!
Great News for Barrie Economy!
Today we were all waiting with eager expectation for an announcement that was being spread on all the local social media. There was all sorts of speculation as to what it would be...some positve, some negative and then the plain ole cynical! All the same it was fun reading the comments and having a good belly laugh at how some people get so critical and upset about something that hasn’t even happened.
The announcement finally came and was as some had predicted! HGS Canada formally made known that they are expanding their inbound contact centre operations to Barrie, Ontario. This expansion will apparently create hundreds of jobs, both entry level and management. Mayor Jeff Lehman explained that “An initial creation of 500 jobs and a further expansion within the year is a big win for the city and we are delighted.” We are delighted with you and all your efforts Mayor Jeff!
The company is only expected to open up in June, but hiring is expected to begin right away, so if you or anyone you know is interested, you can apply on their website: http://www.joinhgs.com
This is indeed Great News for Barrie Economy!
