More Available Jobs in Tulsa, OK as Chamber’s Future Program Advances

Even better, the program has greatly succeeded in attracting investors to the area. Some big-name examples that have been hooked are Verizon, which decided to place its financial services hub in Tulsa, and Macy’s, which is expected to bring in 1,500 full-time and part-time jobs by establishing a fulfillment center in the region by the end of the year. These are just the benefits of the new investors, as the plan also helps already settled businesses to grow, an effort that has borne fruit in the recent assistance of 77 local business expansions.

Needless to say, the additional jobs created by the chamber’s Future program are having an impressive effect on the local economy. Unemployment is down by 5.3% in the Tulsa area and the city is adding an average of 5,000 jobs a month. Much of this can be seen in the growth of infrastructure jobs in the area, but other fields like IT work and office staffing are seeing their own boom.

Tulsa Jobs Market Booming with Openings in the Infrastructure Field

Careers in infrastructure can range from truck drivers to civil engineers. These jobs help maintain the backbone of the country as they ensure that the nation’s roads, railways, and waterways are functioning and expanding properly.

Infrastructure jobs also happen to pay good wages while quite a few of them have a low barrier for entry in terms of educational requirements; a striking example of this is that 59 out of 95 infrastructure occupations are considered to pay above-average salaries, while those on the lower end still get paid better than other entry-level positions in other fields.
