than 1200 new jobs at the Orlando headquarters of Connextions. Buddy Dyer, Categories: Job Announcements June 24, 2011 1,200 New, Quality Jobs Coming to Orlando Courtesy of Connextions Today, I got the chance to partner with leaders from one of our City’s fastest growing companies, Connextions, to announce the addition of 1,200 new jobs.
The positions will be located at the company’s existing Orlando headquarters, as well as a seasonal expansion site in south Orlando. Positions range from licensed and non-licensed health agent roles, to coaches, managers, technologists and more. For more information about Connextions, view the press release here. More importantly, for details on available jobs and to apply go to: jobs.connextions.com. Today’s job announcement is another important milestone in the recovery of our local economy. It also comes on the heels of news just last week that unemployment in Orlando is in the single digits for the second straight month. Central Florida also continues to add jobs more quickly than other metro areas across the state. Compared with May 2010, Metro Orlando had about 6,600 more jobs last month. That’s the biggest year-over-year gain among the 22 areas measured in Florida. We still have much work to do as our community partners together to sustain our economic recovery. This job announcement is great news and our City is committed to helping connect our residents with high quality jobs.
