Deloitte To Open Tech Center In Lake Mary

Deloitte Consulting, one of the world's largest accounting and professional services firms, will hire 1,000 people over the next four years for a new tech center in Lake Mary.  The average annual salary will be $60,250, about $20,000 above the average wage in Seminole County.  Most of the jobs will be in software development and information technology.

The company will set up its operation in an existing four story, 130,000 square foot office building at 901 International Parkway.  About 50 Deloitte employees will be transferred from other locations and the rest will be hired locally.  This announcement follows the opening of the Verizon finance center in Lake Mary, which will also create over 1,000 jobs.  That is good news for Lake Mary and surrounding area real estate owners, as the increased demand for housing will continue to fuel value appreciation.
