IN: Alorica Subsidiary to Hire 600 in Lafayette

Sep 24, 2010

Ryla, an Alorica company, today announced the creation of 600 new jobs, to be located at Alorica's existing Lafayette, Indiana, call center facility, due to expanded customer service needs of one of Ryla's clients. The new business will provide customer service support for a Fortune 50 company, and allow Alorica to fulfill its commitment of generating at least 600 jobs in the Lafayette community, originally announced in 2009. Hiring to fill the 600 new positions begins September 27, 2010.

Transitioning the call center to a Ryla-operated facility will be seamless, with the Lafayette management team remaining intact. The center's existing 90 customer service employees will be offered the opportunity to apply for the 600 Ryla positions, the goal being to retain as many who are interested.

"We are very excited about the new opportunities this presents for our existing employee team," says Phil Sanchez, Lafayette Site Director. "The work will bring in more full-time positions, create advancement opportunities and allow for new people to join our growing team," added Sanchez.

In April, Alorica acquired GA-based Ryla, a leading domestic provider of value-added customer contact services that has experienced tremendous growth since its founding in 2001.

"The addition of Ryla has enhanced our client portfolio and amplified our reach for new business opportunities such as this," said Andy Lee, Alorica Chairman & CEO.

"We're pleased to be in a position to bring so many jobs to the area," said Mark Wilson, Ryla CEO and Founder. "It's good for the greater Lafayette community and state of Indiana."

In addition to the customer service positions, Ryla is also seeking to fill several supervisory and support staff positions. The company, which supports large corporations and government agencies, provides customer contact services and does no telemarketing.
