Online retail giant Amazon.com said today it is opening a 900,000 square-foot facility in Plainfield, Indiana, that it will stock with hundreds of employees.
The fulfillment center will house both full-time, part-time, and seasonal employees beginning this year.
This is Amazons fourth fulfillment center in Indiana. Amazon currently operates two fulfillment centers in Whitestown and Plainfield and recently opened another facility in Indianapolis.
The total number of employees Amazon has in Indiana was not specified, but the number is reported to be in the thousands.
Amazon shows no sign of curbing its nationwide expansion. The company has announced plans for new fulfillment centers in Washington State, Indiana, South Carolina and Tennessee, in addition to expansion of an existing fulfillment center in Phoenix, Arizona.
“We’re excited to be hiring for hundreds of additional jobs at Amazon’s fulfillment centers in Pennsylvania this summer,” said Dave Clark, vice president, Amazon North American Operations. “We’re committed to growth in Pennsylvania because Governor Corbett and other state officials have demonstrated their commitment to Amazon jobs and investment.”
Amazon is advertising opportunities in Picking, Packing and Receiving/Shipping. Management roles include positions in Operations, Safety, Human Resources and Technical Support.
