A fast-growing company is increasing the number of customer service jobs Phoenix has.

PayPal recently opened a new customer service center in Chandler, a nearby suburb of Phoenix. The new 188,000-square-foot facility is expected to eventually create about 2,000 jobs in Chandler and bring plenty of revenue to the local economy.

The company has already hired more than 500 employees at the new center and expects to hire another 1,500 by the end of the year. These jobs are in everything from sales careers Chandler to customer service to technology and will focus on supporting PayPal's growth.

"PayPal is growing at a phenomenal rate," PayPal President Scott Thompson said in a statement. "Last year we set a new record for the business, adding one million new customers a month. To support this growth, we have added dedicated teams here in Chandler – including customer service, operations, training, technology and management – to serve our customers across North America, in our burgeoning market in Mexico and as far away as Australia."

Part of the reason that PayPal chose to open its new location in Chandler is that the company already has a strong presence in the area. Most notably, PayPal operates a technology center in Scottsdale that supports the company's product development, infrastructure design, and engineering.

"PayPal is a very welcome addition to Chandler and the region on many levels," Chandler Mayor Jay Tibshraeny said. "From job creation and the diversification of the city's business base to PayPal's excellent reputation as a quality employer, we are excited to have them join Chandler in the Price Corridor."
