Expert Global Solutions, Inc. (EGS) has announced a major expansion in Virginia Beach that will create 175 new jobs to support increased national customer and technical services requirements in the pharmaceutical sector. The company provides global business process outsourcing through its two subsidiaries – APAC Customer Services, Inc. and NCO Financial Systems, Inc. APAC offers customer care services, and NCO offers financial care services.
EGS is headquartered in Plano, Texas and has approximately 40,000 employees worldwide. As part of their expansion, EGS will co-locate a new APAC division in Virginia Beach with their existing NCO operations at 4740 Baxter Road. The 30,000-square-foot office currently supports 245 employees and will expand by 175 employees over the next year.
“Virginia Beach competed nationally with other EGS locations for this expansion,” said Warren D. Harris, director of Virginia Beach Economic Development. “We’re very fortunate to have a company of this caliber show its confidence to expand here. We know they will find a plentiful and skilled workforce.”
Melody Cespedes, Site Director of EGS’ Virginia Beach location, stated, “We are thrilled to be expanding here in Virginia Beach and to be partnering with the Virginia Beach Economic Development team. The investments made by both organizations show our combined commitment to the area and to bringing good jobs to members of our community.”
EGS generates $1.1 billion annually through NCO and APAC that provide services for a majority of the Fortune 500 companies in the United States, as well as other leading global companies. EGS has contact centers located throughout the United States and across the globe.
The expansion will also result in $600,000 of new capital investment in the City.
