RIO RANCHO, N.M. (AP) - Officials say Rio Rancho will get hundreds of additional jobs thanks to a new employer’s arrival in the Albuquerque suburb.
Gov. Susana Martinez participated Wednesday afternoon in a welcoming event for S&P Data LLC. The employer says it will hire 100 workers upfront and add another 325 over the next few years.
The company’s website says it provides customer support for Fortune 500 customers such as American Express, Apple and McDonalds.
Martinez says New Mexico is making strides in becoming more competitive within the business climate. She says the focus is to grow the state’s private-sector economy to reduce its reliance on what she described as a dysfunctional federal government.
