Feb 23, 2016

Wayfair Inc., one of the world's largest online destinations for home furnishings and décor, announced plans to open a new customer service center located in Bryan, Texas. Wayfair will hire approximately 450 employees in the new location as it scales operations to service its rapidly growing customer base.

 “Wayfair’s steadfast commitment to exceptional customer service has helped fuel the incredible growth of our business as more people discover a new and better way to shop for home furnishings,” said James Savarese, Chief Operating Officer, Wayfair. “We look forward to expanding our operations to the Bryan-College Station area as we welcome new talent to our world-class customer service team.”

Known as The Research Valley, the Bryan-College Station area is a hub for innovation and technology in Texas.

We have found that access to higher education, ongoing innovation and a robust cultural scene all contribute to a strong local workforce.
