“We’re thrilled to be able to offer this powerful resource to the community and strengthen both employee and business access to Franklin County’s abundant resources,” said Beth Simms, Franklin County Economic Development Director. “If you have looked away from Franklin County for work in the past, it’s time to take another look here. There’s a lot of opportunity in a variety of sectors.”

Franklin County Office of Economic Development is the go-to resource for business location and expansion, but also serves the greater community. As a connector between businesses and jobs and residents and workforce talent, the organization is positioned as a connector of resources. The job board will make it even easier to connect businesses with talent.

With vital sectors in manufacturing and agriculture, a new business park at Summit View, and a highly livable and desirable East Coast location, Franklin County is a natural setting for opportunity, business, and workforce talent.
