Lynne Doughtie, Chairman and CEO at KPMG LLP explained: “This campus is our firm’s largest capital investment ever. More than that, it’s an investment in our people. Today marks a major milestone toward creating a world-class environment that inspires our professionals to achieve their fullest potential and helps enable our firm to attract and retain the best talent.”
330 employments are to be created over the next three years in addition to eighty new KPMG jobs associated with operating the facility.
Florida Governor Rick Scott added: “I am proud to celebrate the groundbreaking of KPMG’s new facility and the creation of 330 new jobs. KPMG is a global company with an incredible presence in our state and today’s announcement shows how important it is to do all we can to fight for these major jobs wins. We are competing at a global scale, and we will keep working with our economic development partners from across the state to help create new opportunities for our families. I look forward to seeing this new facility and welcoming KPMG employees from across the nation to our great state.”
The project is worth $400M and its completion is scheduled for the end of 2019.
