Website creation giant Wix is opening a new office in Denver this fall, as it plans to hire more than 200 employees in the city.
The company said it experienced tremendous growth over the past year and is planning to double down on its support for users with expansion of its customer care team into the Denver market.
The office will hold more than 200 full-time customer care team members, and in the coming year, it will be open to other functions including sales and account management.
"In order to continue to serve our over 170 million users and positively impact the success of millions of businesses and professional services, it is our top priority to provide best in class customer care and create a positive experience for them while using our service," said Alon Mor, VP of customer care at Wix, in a statement. "Denver has and continues to be an epicenter for technology, attracting talent that matches what we're seeking for one of the most strategic groups in our company."
Wix has more than 3,200 employees across 15 other permanent office locations including its headquarters in Israel and U.S. offices in Miami, San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, and Phoenix.
Colorado Governor Jared Polis supported the move, touting Colorado's rebounding economy and entrepreneurial spirit.
"Colorado has the perfect business climate, entrepreneurial spirit, resilient and skilled workforce to help support Wix's continued expansion," said Polis. "These new jobs will be a strong addition to Colorado's rebounding economy, and this Denver location will offer tremendous opportunity for continued growth."
The company, founded in 2006, currently has eight Denver jobs posted on its website, across sales, customer care and human resources.
