IBM plans to create 600 jobs in North Carolina through a new service center for subsidiary IBM Lender Business Process Services Inc.

The company will invest $3.7 million for the new center, which will be located in Research Triangle Park in the Raleigh-Durham area. IBM is already one of the largest employers in the area, according to Triangle Business Journal, with 10,000 employees currently at RTP.

“IBM has been a major employer in North Carolina providing thousands of skilled jobs for more than 30 years,” Gov. Beverly Perdue said in a news release. “We value this company’s ongoing commitment to North Carolina and Research Triangle Park.”

IBM LBPS offers a broad range of lender-based technology and business process solutions for its clients, according to the governor’s office.

Compensation will vary by jobs, but the average pay for the new positions will be about $50,000 a year, not including benefits.
