GXO Logistics is hiring by the thousands nationally – and by the hundreds in the Dallas area.
The Connecticut company is aiming to hire 800-plus folks in North Texas, according to a spokesperson. The positions range from application development engineers to forklift operators to folks in human resources.
The push comes as the company looks to hire roughly 9,000 people in North America ahead of the peak holiday season, according to an announcement on Wednesday. Globally, GXO is recruiting more than 20,000.
The company is looking for help as the U.S. and the world grapples with supply chain challenges that are affecting industries that include automobiles. At the same time, companies are ratcheting up efforts to find more workers as competition grows for qualified employees. During the second quarter, GXO’s revenue climbed more than $1.5 billion to roughly $5 billion.
Key states where GXO is hiring include Texas, California, Georgia, Indiana and Pennsylvania.
A key area of demand is e-commerce, and the company is looking to technology to help as well. It’s increasing the deployment of automation across its operations, up 40% year-over-year. The company plans to deploy 3,100 robots in North America by the end of 2021.
